Bath re-enamelling at your home in Washpit
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Washpit and across Kirklees.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Common questions in Washpit
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Are there extra charges for Washpit?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Washpit
If you manage property in Washpit, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Washpit
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Washpit. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
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 pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
