Bath re-enamelling in Poringland without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Poringland and across Norfolk.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Questions from Poringland
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

- A metal bath with a through crack

Landlord and trade work in Poringland
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
