Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Nawton, North Yorkshire
Our repair technicians come to Nawton for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Nawton
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Nawton questions
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
The entire UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Do you work in Nawton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Nawton and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Nawton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
When to call us in Nawton
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
