Bath re-enamelling in Brockley, done in place
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace in Brockley?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Brockley
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
Most customers in Brockley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Brockley
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
