Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Questions from Storthes Hall
Which areas do you work in?
All of Kirklees, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we’re called out for in Storthes Hall
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Repair or replace in Storthes Hall?

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Storthes Hall
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
