Bath re-enamelling for Fryton homes

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Fryton. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Bath re-enamelling in Fryton without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We are frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Fryton: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Are there extra charges for Fryton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Fryton?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO62 postcode.

Do you come to Fryton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fryton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Fryton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

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

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

What we work on

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