How we handle bath re-enamelling in The Leigh
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for The Leigh
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in The Leigh?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL19 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
