Bath re-enamelling in Kirdford without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can usually put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Kirdford
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Kirdford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
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.

FAQs for Kirdford
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Kirdford. Prices don’t change with location.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Kirdford?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RH14 postcode.
Do you work in Kirdford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kirdford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What we’re called out for in Kirdford
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
