Bath re-enamelling in High Leigh without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in High Leigh
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in High Leigh
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
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.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in High Leigh?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
For anyone letting property in or around High Leigh, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
