Bath re-enamelling in White Lackington 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, so we do not cut corners on it. We’re frequently asked to fix a roll-top that’s seen better days and stains that won’t shift, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
White Lackington: your questions answered
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in White Lackington?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to White Lackington. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
