Bath re-enamelling at your home in Aldwych
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can generally put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
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.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Aldwych
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Aldwych, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath that is rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
