How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ravenscar
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What your bath is made of matters
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 is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common problems we fix in Ravenscar
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
I rent my home. Can I book you?

Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Ravenscar and the rest of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
