Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunnel End as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
About our bath re-enamelling in Tunnel End
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. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Repair or replace in Tunnel End?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking

Tunnel End questions
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you come to Tunnel End?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tunnel End and the rest of Kirklees. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath that is rusted through

What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Tunnel End
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
