Bath re-enamelling in Staithes, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Staithes
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you work in Staithes?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Staithes from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Common problems we fix in Staithes
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Common reasons people in Staithes contact us are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What else we do in Staithes
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, 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.
