Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ledsham
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ledsham. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Ledsham, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
FAQs for Ledsham
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
