Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ditchingham?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
Bath re-enamelling in Ditchingham without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ditchingham as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Advice
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

Ditchingham questions
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What areas do you cover?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ditchingham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ditchingham. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR35 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
