Bath re-enamelling in Hendon, done in place

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

FAQs for Hendon

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are there extra charges for Hendon?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Hendon?

We do. We send a technician to Hendon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What affects the price in Hendon

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hendon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Hendon, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Hendon, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Repairing versus replacing in Hendon

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NW4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
