Bath re-enamelling near Finghall

How the visit 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 have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our bath re-enamelling in Finghall

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath

For a price in Finghall, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Finghall

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Yorkshire.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How do I book?

Common problems we fix in Finghall

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
