Bath re-enamelling in Knenhall, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Knenhall and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Knenhall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

When to call us in Knenhall
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Questions from Knenhall
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Knenhall is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
