How we handle bath re-enamelling in New Fryston
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 typically cheaper.

New Fryston questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are there extra charges for New Fryston?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Wakefield. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
When to call us in New Fryston
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
