Bath re-enamelling in East Leake, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including East Leake. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
What we are called out for in East Leake
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in East Leake contact us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
