Bath re-enamelling at your home in Middleton

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Middleton. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Middleton?

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

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 are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Middleton customers choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before you book

Landlord and trade work in Middleton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Middleton

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Common questions in Middleton

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you cover the entire of Bradford?

The whole UK, including all of Bradford. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

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.
