Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Shernborne, Norfolk
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Shernborne, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath re-enamelling in Shernborne without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Shernborne
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shernborne as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Shernborne
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
