What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Most customers in Heaverham get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Heaverham
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Chips and rust in more than one place

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Heaverham questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.
