Bath re-enamelling in Leire without replacing anything

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. We’re often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Leire as everywhere else we work.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leire

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Questions from Leire

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you come to Leire?

We do. We send a technician to Leire for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Leire?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Repair or replace in Leire?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
