Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths

- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Friern Barnet?
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.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
