Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wentbridge
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coating lifting around the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wentbridge
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairing versus replacing in Wentbridge
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
What we’re called out for in Wentbridge
Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Comparing quotes
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
