Bath re-enamelling in Thurstonland, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thurstonland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Thurstonland customers choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What we are called out for in Thurstonland
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kirklees and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Can I fix it myself?
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 typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
