Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling in West Lambrook without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and staining under the taps and around the waste, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including West Lambrook. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

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 without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Landlord and trade work in West Lambrook
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in West Lambrook
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Lambrook.

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

Customers usually contact us about:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Stains that will not shift
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
