About our bath re-enamelling in Downham Market
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are often asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Downham Market
If you manage property in Downham Market, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Downham Market use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we are called out for in Downham Market

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that is failing
