Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bearsted
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Bearsted
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Bearsted
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you cover Bearsted?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bearsted from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
