Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and several chips and rust patches.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Letty Green
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Letty Green questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover Letty Green?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Letty Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Letty Green
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Letty Green
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
