Repairing versus replacing in Badley
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Badley
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Badley and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. The room is left tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
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.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Badley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
