Bath re-enamelling in Chilham, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Chilham: your questions answered
Do you cover Chilham?
We do. Technicians travel to Chilham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the price in Chilham
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Chilham?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the whole UK

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chilham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
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 Chilham?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Look out for these signs:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
