Bath re-enamelling in Nackington without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Nackington and across Kent.

- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Common questions in Nackington
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Landlord and trade work in Nackington
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nackington as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Nackington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
