Bath re-enamelling in Kersbrook without replacing anything

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and several chips and rust patches, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When to call us in Kersbrook

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
