About our bath re-enamelling in Hutton Sessay
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Hutton Sessay questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you come to Hutton Sessay?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hutton Sessay for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
