How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kelvedon Hatch
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Kelvedon Hatch
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
What affects the price in Kelvedon Hatch
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on

Kelvedon Hatch: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
