What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Questions from Horton
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Horton?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BD23 postcode.
Do you work in Horton?
We do. Technicians travel to Horton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace in Horton?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Horton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
When to call us in Horton
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
