Bath re-enamelling in Lumby without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and a coloured bath you want in white, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Lumby
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Repair or replace in Lumby?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Store bottles off the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done 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. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

FAQs for Lumby
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover the whole of Leeds?
We work UK-wide, so Lumby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
