Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Old Ingarsby
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

Questions from Old Ingarsby
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you work in Old Ingarsby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Old Ingarsby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Old Ingarsby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Old Ingarsby?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
Before booking anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
