Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Long Lee, Bradford

- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Long Lee. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
About our bath re-enamelling in Long Lee
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairing versus replacing in Long Lee
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Long Lee
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you cover Long Lee?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Long Lee for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

We cover the entire UK, including Long Lee and the rest of Bradford. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlord and trade work in Long Lee
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Long Lee use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
