DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wissett
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Wissett?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your IP19 postcode.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
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.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wissett. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Wissett, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
