- Resurfacing from £350

Common problems we fix in Outlane
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that’s seen better days

Bath re-enamelling in Outlane, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Outlane
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Outlane
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
