DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Bath re-enamelling in Etherdwick without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and a coloured bath you want in white, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Etherdwick as everywhere else we work.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Etherdwick

  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Etherdwick. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

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 is what we repair.

When to call us in Etherdwick

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Etherdwick

Do you come to Etherdwick?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Etherdwick and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
