Different materials, different repairs

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
About our bath re-enamelling in Kames
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about staining under the taps and around the waste and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
FAQs for Kames
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What we are called out for in Kames
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Look out for these signs:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What we can’t put right

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
