How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Fencote
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Fencote use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Common problems we fix in Great Fencote
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for any of the following:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Great Fencote questions
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work in Great Fencote?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Great Fencote from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
