How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Norton-on-Derwent

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Norton-on-Derwent?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts

FAQs for Norton-on-Derwent

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing 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 YO17 postcode.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Norton-on-Derwent?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Norton-on-Derwent and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
