Repairing versus replacing in Podmore
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before you book
- One price list for the entire UK
- Generally one visit, start to finish

About our bath re-enamelling in Podmore
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can generally put it right.

Our work in Podmore
Podmore is about 2 miles west of Dereham, in Norfolk. From the centre of Podmore to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. Podmore is one of 797 places in Norfolk where we work.
All of NR19 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Neighbouring places we cover include Dereham (2 miles east), Toftwood (2 miles south-east), Westfield (3 miles south-east), Yaxham (3 miles south-east) and Whinburgh (4 miles south-east). Further out, we also cover Wymondham (12 miles south-east), Attleborough (12 miles south), Watton (8 miles south), Hethersett (13 miles south-east), Swaffham (9 miles west) and Cringleford (15 miles east).
Around Podmore
We visit homes around Church of St Peter and St Paul, Scarning Fen and Scarning Voluntary Controlled Primary School, among other places. Nearby you’ll also find Bishop Bonner's Cottage Museum (1.5 miles east) and Morley Castle (4.9 miles north-east). Open spaces near Podmore include Hoe Rough.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for Podmore
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Podmore as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
