Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Priestwood, Kent
Bath re-enamelling in and around Priestwood: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Bath re-enamelling in Priestwood, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We are often asked to fix a coloured bath you want in white and a coating lifting around the plughole, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Priestwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- A clear, close picture of the problem area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Priestwood: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
