Bath Re-enamelling in Wigston
Bath re-enamelling across Wigston and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling in Wigston without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wigston
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath
Most customers in Wigston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Wigston
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- Colour-matched on site
