Bath re-enamelling in Canon's Town, done in place
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about chips and rust in more than one place and wear marks under the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Landlord and trade work in Canon's Town
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
