Bath re-enamelling at your home in Knockin
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Knockin
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you cover Knockin?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Knockin from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Knockin?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths

What we are called out for in Knockin
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
