Bath Re-enamelling for Kendon homes
Our repair technicians come to Kendon for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kendon
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Homes around Kendon range from cottages to newer houses. Some still have cast iron or steel baths, which are worth keeping.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Kendon, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Kendon
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. For a home around Kendon where the bath is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.
Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the whole UK
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted

FAQs for Kendon
Do you work for landlords with property near Newbridge station?
Of course: photos and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
My house in Kendon is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Frequently, yes: original pieces are normally worth keeping. Send us photos and we will tell you what’s possible.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Kendon
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it. Around Kendon, access and parking are normally easy. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book and we’ll plan for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common problems we fix in Kendon
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church Of Our Lady Of Peace And Attached Presbytery, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.
