About our bath re-enamelling in Flaxton
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we’re called out for in Flaxton
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

- A metal bath with a through crack

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Flaxton
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Which areas do you work in?
All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Flaxton.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flaxton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Flaxton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Flaxton
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
