Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Questions from Hose
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What we are called out for in Hose
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Hose
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
