DIY kit or professional repair?
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 often lifts.
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 usually the cheaper route.

When to call us in Anlaby Common
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common questions in Anlaby Common
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Anlaby Common
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Anlaby Common as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Anlaby Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
