If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

About our bath re-enamelling in Leagrave
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Leagrave and across Luton.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us

- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Leagrave. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Leagrave
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Leagrave questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Leagrave?
We do. We send a technician to Leagrave for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
