If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lower Holbrook
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lower Holbrook?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
