About our bath re-enamelling in Kitwood
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Kitwood and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Kitwood: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Kitwood is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kitwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
