Bath re-enamelling for Acton Green homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Acton Green

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Acton Green and across Greater London.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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 is the part we put right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What affects the price in Acton Green

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Acton Green. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Acton Green

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Acton Green?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
