Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Swarcliffe, North Yorkshire

- Resurfacing from £350
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

What we cannot put right

- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Swarcliffe
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Swarcliffe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before booking

- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Swarcliffe?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Before you book anyone

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swarcliffe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Swarcliffe
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
