What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Meltonby: your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?
We work UK-wide, so Meltonby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Meltonby?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Meltonby?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Meltonby
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
