Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Linkhill, Kent
Problem with your bath in Linkhill? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Linkhill customers choose us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One price list for the whole UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Bath re-enamelling in Linkhill without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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.
Linkhill questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Linkhill
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Linkhill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
