Bath re-enamelling in Kirksanton, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coloured bath you want in white.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we are called out for in Kirksanton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Kirksanton. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
