Bath Re-enamelling in Knole

- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
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 removes more of the surface.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Knole
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knole
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Knole?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Knole. The price reflects:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Knole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
