About our bath re-enamelling in Mutford
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Mutford as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Mutford
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we are called out for in Mutford
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Questions from Mutford
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
