Common problems we fix in Charlton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that will not shift
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
Questions from Charlton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Charlton, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
