How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Livermere
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
