Bath re-enamelling in Medbourne, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Medbourne and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When to call us in Medbourne
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for these signs:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift
What to look for in a quote

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit

Where we work around Medbourne

Our visits in LE16 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. That includes homes on Main Street, Rectory Lane and Old Holt Road. We also travel to Ashley (1 mile south), Blaston (2 miles north), Slawston (2 miles north-west), Weston by Welland (2 miles south-west) and Welham (2 miles west). Larger places within reach include Corby (6 miles south-east), Kettering (10 miles south-east), Market Harborough (6 miles south-west), Desborough (6 miles south), Burton Latimer (13 miles south-east) and Rothwell (8 miles south).
Landmarks near Medbourne
We visit homes around South Axholme Community School, Horse and Trumpet Inn and Church of St Giles, among other places. A little further out are Rockingham Castle (4.3 miles east) and Hallaton Museum (2.3 miles north). The countryside around Medbourne includes King's Hill and Great Merrible Wood.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Medbourne
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 normally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Medbourne
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Medbourne?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
