What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Carleton Rode without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re frequently asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Carleton Rode and across Norfolk.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still put it right.
Questions from Carleton Rode
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Carleton Rode and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Carleton Rode?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
