About our bath re-enamelling in Gembling
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Riding of Yorkshire.

Gembling questions
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Gembling?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO25 postcode.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you come to Gembling?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gembling for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in Gembling
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Common reasons people in Gembling contact us are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
