FAQs for Burton Overy
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Bath re-enamelling in Burton Overy without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Burton Overy and across Leicestershire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What we are called out for in Burton Overy
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Common reasons people in Burton Overy contact us are:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
