Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in West End
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we’re called out for in West End
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
What affects the price in West End
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in West End
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
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.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you work in West End?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to West End and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in West End
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 is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairing versus replacing in West End
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
