Bath re-enamelling near Butterwick

Bath re-enamelling in Butterwick without replacing anything

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Butterwick

Landlord and trade work in Butterwick

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Butterwick use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Butterwick

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Butterwick and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a full day.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Butterwick

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Several chips and rust patches

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
