When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Tholthorpe
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tholthorpe
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- What preparation is included
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Tholthorpe
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

- How many items we do on one visit

Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
