What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Westleton
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and several chips and rust patches.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace in Westleton?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Westleton
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Westleton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stains that will not shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote

- Any earlier repairs or coatings
