About our bath re-enamelling in Leabrooks
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Leabrooks
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Common questions in Leabrooks
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Leabrooks?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What bath re-enamelling costs

- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
