Bath re-enamelling at your home in Leesthorpe

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for worn patches where water runs and sits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Leesthorpe

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Leesthorpe?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Leesthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

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

FAQs for Leesthorpe

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Leesthorpe

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Choosing a repair company

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
