Bath re-enamelling at your home in Coldred
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Coldred
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Stains that will not shift
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coldred
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Coldred.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Coldred?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
