Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in East Street, Kent
Our repair technicians come to East Street for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that won’t shift
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Bath re-enamelling in East Street without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to East Street. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace in East Street?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
