Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lyncombe
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Lyncombe questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Lyncombe
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lyncombe. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lyncombe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Lyncombe
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

- If travel is included in the price

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before you book
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
See our pricing and bath cost comparison.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
