Landlord and trade work in Chart Sutton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Chart Sutton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Bath re-enamelling in Chart Sutton without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Chart Sutton. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
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.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Chart Sutton
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you come to Chart Sutton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Chart Sutton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Chart Sutton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Chart Sutton

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
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 pay close attention there.
