Bath re-enamelling at your home in Three Chimneys

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Three Chimneys and across Kent.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Three Chimneys, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When to call us in Three Chimneys

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
