Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Knapwell
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Knapwell and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Knapwell
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Knapwell questions
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Knapwell?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
