Bath Re-enamelling for Blofield homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Blofield, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
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.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blofield
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can normally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

FAQs for Blofield
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Blofield?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Blofield. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?
Everywhere in the UK, Blofield included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

What we’re called out for in Blofield
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
