Bath re-enamelling in New York, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
New York questions
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE29 postcode.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
