Bath re-enamelling for High Kelling homes

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What affects the price in High Kelling

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most customers in High Kelling get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why High Kelling customers choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Kelling

For anyone letting property in or around High Kelling, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

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 just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in High Kelling

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in High Kelling?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in High Kelling

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
