How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing 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.

When a repair is not the answer

Common questions in Hopton on Sea
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repairs by material
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.
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 is the part we put right.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
