Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Leamington Hastings, Warwickshire
Bath re-enamelling across Leamington Hastings and nearby, usually in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Leamington Hastings without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Leamington Hastings. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. 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 price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Leamington Hastings
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 bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Should you replace it?
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Leamington Hastings. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Leamington Hastings: your questions answered
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
