Bath re-enamelling in Braidley without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Braidley and across North Yorkshire.

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Repairing versus replacing in Braidley
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Common questions in Braidley
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Braidley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Braidley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Braidley
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
