Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Wilmington
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wilmington
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
FAQs for Wilmington
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover Wilmington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wilmington and the rest of Hull. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the entire of Hull?
We work UK-wide, so Wilmington is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

What else we do in Wilmington
Landlord and trade work in Wilmington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 typically cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
