Bath re-enamelling in Kilvington, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Kilvington
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Kilvington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Kilvington
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When to call us in Kilvington
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Look out for these signs:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

- Pressed steel baths
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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.
