Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Harborough Magna
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Harborough Magna?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that is failing
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- How the colour is matched
