Bath re-enamelling in Herringfleet without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Herringfleet. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Herringfleet, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace in Herringfleet?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What else we do in Herringfleet
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Herringfleet questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Herringfleet?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NR32 postcode.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
