Bath re-enamelling in Boulby without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day. The room is left tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Boulby: your questions answered
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
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.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Boulby
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Boulby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
