Trusted bath re-enamelling in Kingsmead

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kingsmead

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and worn patches where water runs and sits, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Kingsmead: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Kingsmead, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
