Bath re-enamelling at your home in Scalby
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What affects the price in Scalby
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Scalby. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Scalby, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Scalby
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Scalby?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for any of the following:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Scalby?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Scalby and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Repair or replace in Scalby?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
