Bath Re-enamelling for Leavesden homes
Damaged bath in Leavesden? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Leavesden, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and chips and rust in more than one place.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Leavesden as everywhere else we work.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Leavesden: your questions answered
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Leavesden?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Repair or replace in Leavesden?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters
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’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
