Bath re-enamelling at your home in Allerton
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Allerton
How it works

- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.

- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Allerton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I fix it myself?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Allerton questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you cover Allerton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Allerton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Allerton and the rest of Bradford. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
