Bath re-enamelling in Aylesford

Questions from Aylesford

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Does the bath have to be removed?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Bath re-enamelling in Aylesford without replacing anything

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Aylesford?

Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that’s rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
