Bath Re-enamelling for Groby homes
Bath re-enamelling in Groby without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Groby
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Groby questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Groby
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Groby
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Landlord and trade work in Groby
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Groby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
