Bath re-enamelling at your home in Leatherhead

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common problems we fix in Leatherhead

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

What we work on

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

Leatherhead: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Leatherhead.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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 will tell you.

Are there extra charges for Leatherhead?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

Most customers in Leatherhead get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
