Bath re-enamelling near Snettisham

Bath re-enamelling in Snettisham, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We’re often asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Snettisham

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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 resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Snettisham questions

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Snettisham included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

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.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
