Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we’re called out for in North Green

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in North Green

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are there extra charges for North Green?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you cover North Green?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to North Green and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for North Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
