Bath re-enamelling in Hey Green without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kirklees.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hey Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hey Green questions
Do you work in Hey Green?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hey Green and the rest of Kirklees. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hey Green
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HD7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
