How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wanlip
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When to call us in Wanlip
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wanlip
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What affects the price in Wanlip
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Wanlip. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wanlip, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wanlip
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Wanlip?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE7 postcode.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Wanlip
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
