Landlord and trade work in Foulby
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Bath re-enamelling in Foulby without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are frequently asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wakefield.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Foulby questions
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Common problems we fix in Foulby
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Foulby, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before you book
- Everything repaired in place
Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Foulby. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Foulby
