About our bath re-enamelling in Great Thurlow
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places, we can generally put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Great Thurlow and across Suffolk.

Landlord and trade work in Great Thurlow
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Thurlow. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Great Thurlow, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Great Thurlow
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Great Thurlow?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
