Bath re-enamelling in Kingswood

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kingswood

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When to call us in Kingswood

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

How to compare quotes

Questions from Kingswood

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you cover Kingswood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kingswood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Kingswood

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Kingswood. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Kingswood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

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

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingswood as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
