Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Brafferton, North Yorkshire
Damaged bath in Brafferton? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Brafferton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Brafferton
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.
