Bath re-enamelling in Lyndon without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Lyndon. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Common questions in Lyndon
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Lyndon?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lyndon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Lyndon.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we’re called out for in Lyndon
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
