Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Woodhouse, Leicestershire

- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We are frequently asked to fix a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Woodhouse and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
