- Resurfacing from £350
- Lots of chips and rust spots

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Leighton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
