About our bath re-enamelling in Ingerthorpe
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can normally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace in Ingerthorpe?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No need to remove anything

When to call us in Ingerthorpe
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Ingerthorpe. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ingerthorpe, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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 on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
