How we handle bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse Hill
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re often asked to fix several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Woodhouse Hill
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodhouse Hill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Questions from Woodhouse Hill
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover the whole of Kirklees?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Woodhouse Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HD2 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse Hill
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
