FAQs for Rothwell
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work in Rothwell?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Rothwell and the rest of Leeds. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
What affects the price in Rothwell
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Rothwell get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Rothwell
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
