Bath re-enamelling in Crofton Park without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and lots of chips and rust spots.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

What affects the price in Crofton Park

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. 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.

FAQs for Crofton Park

Do you work in Crofton Park?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Crofton Park from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

Everywhere in the UK, Crofton Park included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Crofton Park

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in Crofton Park

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair
