Bath re-enamelling in Asfordby Hill, done in place

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and thin, worn enamel in places, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Asfordby Hill and across Leicestershire.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos 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

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Asfordby Hill, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Asfordby Hill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Asfordby Hill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Asfordby Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Asfordby Hill, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Asfordby Hill

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

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 our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
