About our bath re-enamelling in Wheldrake
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for any of the following:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wheldrake
Do you cover Wheldrake?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wheldrake from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you cover the whole of York?
Across the UK, so Wheldrake is covered. Prices do not change with location.
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
