Landlords, agents and businesses in Thornton-le-Dale
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Bath re-enamelling in Thornton-le-Dale, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and several chips and rust patches.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Common questions in Thornton-le-Dale
Are there extra charges for Thornton-le-Dale?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
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.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Thornton-le-Dale
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
