Common questions in East Ardsley

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for East Ardsley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in East Ardsley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Common problems we fix in East Ardsley

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before you book anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
