Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Murton
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. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Murton. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Murton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in York and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Murton?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that won’t shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
