DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
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 generally the cheaper route.
Bath re-enamelling in Guisborough, done in place
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Guisborough
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Guisborough
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you cover the entire of Redcar and Cleveland?
The whole UK, including all of Redcar and Cleveland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
