What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
About our bath re-enamelling in Pluckley
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Pluckley
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does re-enamelling 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.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pluckley
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What else we do in Pluckley
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
