About our bath re-enamelling in Knossington
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you’re dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What we are called out for in Knossington
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Knossington questions
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Knossington?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Knossington?
We do. We send a technician to Knossington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
