Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Marlpit Hill, Kent
We travel to Marlpit Hill for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Most clients in Marlpit Hill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Bath re-enamelling in Marlpit Hill, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, we can normally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Marlpit Hill
If you manage property in Marlpit Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
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.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Marlpit Hill: your questions answered

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What areas do you cover?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
