Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hugglescote

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hugglescote as everywhere else we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Questions from Hugglescote

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Hugglescote. Prices don’t change with location.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hugglescote. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When to call us in Hugglescote

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for these signs:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
