Bath re-enamelling in Leek without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Leek, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Leek

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. 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.

Why Leek clients choose us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When to call us in Leek

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Leek questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover Leek?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Leek and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
