How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Smeaton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and several chips and rust patches.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Great Smeaton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Smeaton
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Smeaton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Common questions in Great Smeaton
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Great Smeaton?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
