Bath re-enamelling in Hardwick, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about wear marks under the taps and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in Hardwick
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hardwick. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour-matched on site
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are

Common problems we fix in Hardwick
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Hardwick questions
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
