About our bath re-enamelling in King Row

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and staining under the taps and around the waste, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise 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.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything

Questions from King Row

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Common problems we fix in King Row

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
