What we are called out for in Chislet
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that won’t shift
- Wear marks under the taps
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
Bath re-enamelling in Chislet without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chislet use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow most of the day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Chislet
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Chislet?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
