Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Fishley without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a coating lifting around the plughole, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fishley as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: 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 quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fishley
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fishley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
