Bath Re-enamelling for Whissonsett homes
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Whissonsett and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Several chips and rust patches
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Whissonsett
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Whissonsett
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Several chips and rust patches
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
Landlord and trade work in Whissonsett
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whissonsett use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Repair dripping taps early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Whissonsett, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Whissonsett. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
