Bath Re-enamelling for Hither Green homes
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Hither Green and the surrounding area, typically in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that won’t shift
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Bath re-enamelling in Hither Green without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and wear marks under the taps.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Hither Green and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hither Green
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Hither Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Hither Green, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Common questions in Hither Green
Do you work in Hither Green?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hither Green and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
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.
What we are called out for in Hither Green
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How to look after the finish
- How long it needs to cure
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
