Bath re-enamelling for Rawcliffe homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Rawcliffe

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

What affects the price in Rawcliffe

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When to call us in Rawcliffe

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Rawcliffe

Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Rawcliffe and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work in Rawcliffe?

We do. We send a technician to Rawcliffe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos 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.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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