How we handle bath re-enamelling in Thorpe Tilney
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Thorpe Tilney
Repairing versus replacing in Thorpe Tilney
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What affects the price in Thorpe Tilney
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Thorpe Tilney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Thorpe Tilney questions
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Thorpe Tilney.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
