How we handle bath re-enamelling in Silsden
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Common problems we fix in Silsden
Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you 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.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Silsden questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows 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.
