Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in West Kingsdown, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in West Kingsdown
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Kingsdown and across Kent.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Never use suction bath mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
