Steeple Bumpstead questions
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Steeple Bumpstead?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
For landlords and businesses
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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
