Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hethel
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hethel as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Other services in Hethel
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hethel. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One price list for the entire UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 is what we repair.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hethel. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Hethel
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
