Bath re-enamelling in St Olaves, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in St Olaves
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in St Olaves.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
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?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
