Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ashley
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Ashley
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ashley
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you come to Ashley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ashley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not 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.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CT15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
