Sinderby questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Bath re-enamelling in Sinderby without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We’re frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Sinderby
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit.
