Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cess
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are lots of chips and rust spots and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the entire UK

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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Cess. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cess?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for any of the following:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Cess questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
