How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kearsley
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Kearsley: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work in Kearsley?
We do. We send a technician to Kearsley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Kearsley. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Kearsley
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
