How we handle bath re-enamelling in Norton

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

What we work on

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the price in Norton

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Norton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in Norton

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Common questions in Norton

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SN16 postcode.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Are there extra charges for Norton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the new finish last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
