For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hoxne as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hoxne
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and several chips and rust patches, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Common questions in Hoxne
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What we are called out for in Hoxne
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work

We also travel to Cross Street (1 mile south), Heckfield Green (1 mile south), Thorpe Abbotts (2 miles north-east), Syleham (2 miles east) and Brockdish (2 miles north-east).

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Work done at your home or business

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
