Bath re-enamelling in Newton-on-Ouse

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

If you’re in Newton-on-Ouse and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Newton-on-Ouse

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Newton-on-Ouse

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are there extra charges for Newton-on-Ouse?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you come to Newton-on-Ouse?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newton-on-Ouse and the rest of York. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Newton-on-Ouse, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newton-on-Ouse. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Newton-on-Ouse clients choose us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

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, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
