Bath re-enamelling at your home in Clapham
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clapham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Everything repaired in place

Clapham questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you work in Clapham?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Clapham and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Clapham.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
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.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Clapham. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SW4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
