Bath re-enamelling in Ragdale without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and several chips and rust patches, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What else we do in Ragdale
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ragdale as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ragdale?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched

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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:

- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ragdale. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
FAQs for Ragdale
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, so Ragdale is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
