Landlord and trade work in Southowram
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Southowram
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re often asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and wear marks under the taps, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops

What else we do in Southowram
Southowram: your questions answered
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you cover Southowram?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Southowram for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

When to call us in Southowram
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairing versus replacing in Southowram
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
