Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in St Leonards, Hertfordshire
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in St Leonards and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that will not shift
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in St Leonards, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
