Bath re-enamelling at your home in Fornham All Saints
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Fornham All Saints and across Suffolk.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Other services in Fornham All Saints
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Landlord and trade work in Fornham All Saints
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Fornham All Saints: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Fornham All Saints?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Fornham All Saints and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Fornham All Saints. The price depends on:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Fornham All Saints and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
