Bath re-enamelling in Foxholes, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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 on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Foxholes: your questions answered

Do you come to Foxholes?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Foxholes and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Materials we work on in Foxholes

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Landlord and trade work in Foxholes

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Foxholes, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Foxholes. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
