Bath re-enamelling in Goudhurst, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can normally put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Goudhurst: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Goudhurst
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 generally cheaper.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Goudhurst
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goudhurst use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
