DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in North Howden
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. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Places near North Howden
What else we do in North Howden
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What affects the price in North Howden
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in North Howden
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
