How we handle bath re-enamelling in Belchamp Otten
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Belchamp Otten and across Suffolk.

Questions from Belchamp Otten
Do you work in Belchamp Otten?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Belchamp Otten and the rest of Suffolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO10 postcode.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price

Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
