Questions from Reeth
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Reeth and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Reeth
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Reeth, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
