How we handle bath re-enamelling in Watlington
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 repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Watlington
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Watlington
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Watlington
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
