FAQs for Wickham Market
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Bath re-enamelling in Wickham Market without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with several chips and rust patches and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
What affects the price in Wickham Market
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Wickham Market. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wickham Market. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wickham Market
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
