Bath re-enamelling in Upton without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and staining under the taps and around the waste, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Upton and across Norfolk.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Upton questions
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Upton. Prices don’t change with location.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you work in Upton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Upton and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
What we do, step by step
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. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Common problems we fix in Upton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
