About our bath re-enamelling in Greatness
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Greatness
For anyone letting property in or around Greatness, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greatness as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Greatness, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Nearby places to Greatness
What else we do in Greatness
Greatness: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We work UK-wide, so Greatness is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
When to call us in Greatness
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
