Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Saltergate
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Saltergate: your questions answered
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work in Saltergate?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Saltergate and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What affects the price in Saltergate
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Saltergate. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
More services for Saltergate
Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
