Need bath re-enamelling in Horton in Ribblesdale?

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Horton in Ribblesdale questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Horton in Ribblesdale. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Horton in Ribblesdale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Horton in Ribblesdale

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
