Bath re-enamelling in Green Street Green, done in place

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

London bathrooms are frequently small, tiled tight around the bath and up a flight or two of stairs. Taking the bath out means tiles, panels and plumbing, while bath re-enamelling leaves it in place.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Green Street Green

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

As a London address, Green Street Green can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Green Street Green questions

My house in Green Street Green is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Normally, yes. Older baths are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.

Do you work for landlords with property near Chelsfield station?

Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Green Street Green

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. For a flat in Green Street Green, replacement can also disturb neighbours below and need the building manager’s say-so. Repairing is much less disruptive.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
