Bath Re-enamelling for Littlebourne homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Littlebourne
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Typical jobs here are in homes near The Basket Makers pub, Church of St Vincent and Littlebourne Church of England Primary School, among other places.

Further afield, we also cover the area around Canterbury Castle (3.9 miles west) and Canterbury Roman Museum (3.6 miles west). The countryside around Littlebourne includes West Blean and Thornden Woods.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry

Advice
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Littlebourne

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Littlebourne
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Littlebourne
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for these signs:
- Stains that won’t shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
