Bath re-enamelling in Morton on the Hill

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Bath re-enamelling in Morton on the Hill 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. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Morton on the Hill questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover Morton on the Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Morton on the Hill and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

What affects the price in Morton on the Hill

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Morton on the Hill and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
