Bredfield questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
Do you come to Bredfield?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bredfield. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bredfield
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bredfield use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Bredfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Advice
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Bredfield. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Bredfield and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
