Questions from Stoughton
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Bath re-enamelling in Stoughton without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicester.

Landlord and trade work in Stoughton
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. 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.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

What else we do in Stoughton
When to call us in Stoughton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Before booking anyone

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
