How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wrenthorpe
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

FAQs for Wrenthorpe
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Wrenthorpe. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Wrenthorpe?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For a price in Wrenthorpe, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Landlord and trade work in Wrenthorpe
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wrenthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wrenthorpe?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
