Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Beccles. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlord and trade work in Beccles

For anyone letting property in or around Beccles, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Beccles

  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Beccles

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NR34 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Beccles questions

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
