How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kettlebridge
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- 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.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

FAQs for Kettlebridge
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Kettlebridge?
We do. We send a technician to Kettlebridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Kettlebridge, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
