Bath re-enamelling in Gisleham, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Gisleham
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
Across the UK, and that includes Gisleham. Prices do not change with location.
Landlord and trade work in Gisleham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Advice
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Gisleham
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- How soon you can use it again
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
