Our work in Litchborough
Litchborough is about 5 miles north-west of Towcester, in Northamptonshire. We visit clients in Litchborough, so there’s no workshop to go to. Litchborough is one of 364 places in Northamptonshire where we work. We work right across the region, from Litchborough to Birmingham (40 miles away).
Our visits in NN12 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We regularly work on streets such as Waits Yard, Northampton Road and Towcester Road and the roads around them. We also travel to Grimscote (1 mile south-east), Cold Higham (2 miles east), Pattishall (2 miles east), Blakesley (3 miles south) and Astcote (3 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Northampton (9 miles north-east), Daventry (7 miles north-west), Brackley (11 miles south), Towcester (5 miles south-east), Wolverton (14 miles south-east) and Stony Stratford (13 miles south-east).
Local landmarks in Litchborough
We visit homes around Church of St Martin and Old Red Lion Public House. Nearby you’ll also find Farthingstone Castle Dykes (1.8 miles north-west). The countryside around Litchborough includes Ramsden Corner Plantation.
Bath re-enamelling in Litchborough without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Litchborough and across Northamptonshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Litchborough
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Litchborough. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Litchborough and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common questions in Litchborough
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Litchborough
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Litchborough
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
