Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hadleigh
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Hadleigh questions
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Hadleigh included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hadleigh. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Hadleigh
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How soon you can use it again
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
