Bath re-enamelling in Crostwight without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Crostwight and across Norfolk.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we’re called out for in Crostwight
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
