The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access

Snowgate Head: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Snowgate Head and the rest of Kirklees. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HD9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
If you manage property in Snowgate Head, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What else we do in Snowgate Head
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
