For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hurlingham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When to call us in Hurlingham
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

What else we do in Hurlingham
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Hurlingham. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Hurlingham questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
