How we handle bath re-enamelling in Nidd
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nidd. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Nidd
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit

- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

FAQs for Nidd
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Nidd
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
