Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Upton, Kent

- Resurfacing from £350

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Bath re-enamelling in Upton without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We’re often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Upton and across Kent.

What we are called out for in Upton
Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upton
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CT10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Upton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
