About our bath re-enamelling in Coalville
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coalville as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Repairing versus replacing in Coalville
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
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 just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Coalville
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Clients typically contact us about:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

When we would advise against a repair

- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Questions from Coalville
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
