How we handle bath re-enamelling in Knebworth
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are wear marks under the taps and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
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 else we do in Knebworth
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Repairing versus replacing in Knebworth
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Why Knebworth customers choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work

- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs

- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
