Bath re-enamelling in Danby without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and worn patches where water runs and sits.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Danby. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your YO21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repair or replace in Danby?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Danby questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Danby
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
