Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bogle
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Bogle. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Bogle
For anyone letting property in or around Bogle, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bogle?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Common reasons people in Bogle contact us include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Bogle questions
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
