About our bath re-enamelling in Saltby
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can typically put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Saltby. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths

Repair or replace in Saltby?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking

When to call us in Saltby
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Saltby
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Saltby?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE14 postcode.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?
The whole UK, including all of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
