Bath re-enamelling in Catfield without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Catfield questions
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Catfield. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Catfield?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NR29 postcode.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Do you come to Catfield?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Catfield and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Catfield
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Clients typically contact us about:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
