Bath re-enamelling in Wrabness, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and stains that won’t shift, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairing versus replacing in Wrabness
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Wrabness

FAQs for Wrabness
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
