When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Bath re-enamelling in Sholden, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you’re dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 else we do in Sholden
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sholden as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Sholden questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you work in Sholden?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Sholden. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Sholden
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sholden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
