About our bath re-enamelling in New Ellerby

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in New Ellerby?

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

Common questions in New Ellerby

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
