Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Church End, Suffolk
Problem with your bath in Church End? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.

- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Church End
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Church End
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Church End
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- One price list for the entire UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
