What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Bath re-enamelling in Markfield, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We are frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Questions from Markfield
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What affects the price in Markfield
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Markfield?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Markfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
