The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Boroughbridge. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Boroughbridge
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we’re called out for in Boroughbridge
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
