Bath re-enamelling in Hazelwood without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses
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.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Hazelwood. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hazelwood?
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hazelwood, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Hazelwood: your questions answered
Do you come to Hazelwood?

Is the work guaranteed?

Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
