Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Barrow upon Soar
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Barrow upon Soar, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you cover Barrow upon Soar?

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Barrow upon Soar. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
