Bath Re-enamelling in Great Welnetham
Our technicians come to Great Welnetham for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
About our bath re-enamelling in Great Welnetham
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Welnetham
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What affects the price in Great Welnetham
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Great Welnetham
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
