About our bath re-enamelling in Enfield Wash

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Enfield Wash

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we are called out for in Enfield Wash

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Enfield Wash

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

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.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A bath that is rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Enfield Wash

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
