Bath re-enamelling in Stocks Green without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we are called out for in Stocks Green
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Stocks Green
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlord and trade work in Stocks Green
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stocks Green as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that’s rusted through
