Bath re-enamelling in Kirby Cane without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

When to call us in Kirby Cane
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Stains that won’t shift
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Common questions in Kirby Cane
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you cover Kirby Cane?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kirby Cane and the rest of Suffolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns 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 the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
