Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Blue Bell Hill, Medway
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Blue Bell Hill and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blue Bell Hill
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Blue Bell Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Blue Bell Hill: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are there extra charges for Blue Bell Hill?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Blue Bell Hill
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. 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.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What else we do in Blue Bell Hill
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
