Bath Re-enamelling for Colindale homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Colindale, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Colindale
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Questions from Colindale
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
