Bath re-enamelling in Whaplode St Catherine, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and wear marks under the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Whaplode St Catherine

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common problems we fix in Whaplode St Catherine
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes most of the day. We clean up when we’re 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Whaplode St Catherine, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
