Bath re-enamelling near Holme on the Wolds

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Holme on the Wolds

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Holme on the Wolds

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Questions from Holme on the Wolds

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

How long is the bath unusable?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Holme on the Wolds and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
