Repair or replace in Breighton?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Bath re-enamelling in Breighton without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Breighton
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Breighton. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price

Advice
What we’re called out for in Breighton
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
