Bath re-enamelling at your home in Great Givendale
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
FAQs for Great Givendale
Can you price it without visiting?

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Great Givendale?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Great Givendale
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
