Questions from Twitton
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work in Twitton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Twitton and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Bath re-enamelling in Twitton without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Twitton
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
