Bath Re-enamelling for Stanhoe homes
Bath re-enamelling in and around Stanhoe: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Stanhoe. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling in Stanhoe, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Stanhoe: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Stanhoe
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stanhoe
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Look out for these signs:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Stanhoe
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
