Bath re-enamelling near Potter Heigham

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Potter Heigham

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Potter Heigham

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Potter Heigham clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
