Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
About our bath re-enamelling in Hathern
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hathern
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We cover the entire UK, including Hathern and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE12 postcode.
What affects the price in Hathern
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hathern. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hathern. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Hathern, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hathern
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hathern as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Hathern, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
