About our bath re-enamelling in Melton Mowbray
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can normally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Melton Mowbray
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
FAQs for Melton Mowbray
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
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.
What we’re called out for in Melton Mowbray
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
