Bath Re-enamelling for Aldeburgh homes
We travel to Aldeburgh for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
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.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Aldeburgh
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we are called out for in Aldeburgh
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Questions from Aldeburgh
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aldeburgh as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in Aldeburgh

- How many areas need work

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match

Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
