In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

FAQs for New Luce
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What else we do in New Luce
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- 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 normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
If you’re in New Luce and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
