Bath re-enamelling in Lower Holloway, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lower Holloway and across Greater London.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Lower Holloway. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Respect the curing time we give you
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal

How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Lower Holloway
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
