Bath re-enamelling in Baildon, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a coating lifting around the plughole, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

Repair dripping taps early
Get any chip repaired quickly
Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Baildon: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you come to Baildon?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Baildon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Do you cover the entire of Bradford?

Everywhere in the UK, Baildon included. Travel is included in the price.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The material
Doing more than one item at once
The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

What it’s made of, if you know
One picture of the entire bath
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Baildon get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Baildon

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Look out for any of the following:

A roll-top that’s seen better days
Stains that will not shift
Wear marks under the taps
Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Baildon

If you manage property in Baildon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Let the surface dry out before the visit
Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
