Bath re-enamelling at your home in Nun Monkton
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Nun Monkton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Nun Monkton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Nun Monkton questions
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- 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 usually ready the following day.
