About our bath re-enamelling in Tacolneston
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tacolneston and across Norfolk.

Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tacolneston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When to call us in Tacolneston
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that is failing
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
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
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
