Trusted bath re-enamelling in Reedham

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Bath re-enamelling in Reedham, done in place

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about several chips and rust patches and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Reedham?

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

FAQs for Reedham

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Reedham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Reedham. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: 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.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
