About our bath re-enamelling in Sholden Meadows

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Sholden Meadows

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Sholden Meadows customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sholden Meadows

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

Across the UK, and that includes Sholden Meadows. Prices do not change with location.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Sholden Meadows?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Sholden Meadows from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price
