Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
Bath re-enamelling in Leathley without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Our work in Leathley
Leathley is about 2 miles north-east of Otley, in Leeds. From the centre of Leathley to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. Leathley is one of 198 towns and villages in Leeds where we work. We work right across the region, from Leathley to Leeds (about 9 miles away).
All of LS21 is covered. Local streets include Stainburn Lane, Stainburn Close and Hall Lane, and we cover them all. We also travel to Lindley (1 mile north), Knotford (1 mile south-west), Stainburn (1 mile north-east), Rotherford (1 mile south-east) and Braythorn (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cover Leeds (9 miles south-east), Morley (12 miles south), Pudsey (8 miles south), Rothwell (13 miles south-east), Beeston (11 miles south) and Farsley (8 miles south).
Landmarks near Leathley
Our clients here include homes close to Prince Henry's Grammar School and Church of St Oswald. Leathley’s nearest station is Weeton station, roughly 2.5 miles east. Nearby you’ll also find Wharfedale Hospital (2.4 miles west) and John O'Gaunt's Castle (4.7 miles north). Not far away are Great Alms Cliff and Yeadon Tarn.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Leathley
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Leathley?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Leathley. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Leathley. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Leathley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When to call us in Leathley
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that will not shift
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
