The initial results don't look too bad but over a relatively short period of time things deteriorate quickly. Acrylic or paint surfaces age quickly, are impossible to clean and are vulnerable to all sorts of materials. All of these properties are precisely the opposite of vitreous enamel! There is a reason vitreous has been used on range cookers since the 1920's!

We will only ever use genuine cast parts when carrying out our re-enamelling service,and the only surface that equals this in quality and longevity is vitreous enamel.

Katy is a rural girl at heart. She loves long walks, home cooking, paddling in rivers, warm fires and socks and stomping in leaves with her children. After studying ‘drawing stuff’ at university in Bath, Katy spent 10 years selling wares and managing folk at Habitat in Bath. Welcoming children into her world prompted her to return to drawing things, people and places from home. This led her to us at Blake & Bull and the rest is history. She draws our stuff, provides cuddles for the office dog, and is here to chat to you lovely lot.
