Bath re-enamelling in Fenn Street without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Fenn Street?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Fenn Street questions
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Fenn Street included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Medway.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
