Bath re-enamelling in Brook Green without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Landlord and trade work in Brook Green
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brook Green as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Common questions in Brook Green
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Brook Green.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP29 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace in Brook Green?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
