Bath re-enamelling in Deptford without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we are called out for in Deptford
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
For anyone letting property in or around Deptford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Deptford. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SE8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Deptford: your questions answered
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
