Bath re-enamelling at your home in Mill Hill
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Get any chip repaired quickly
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Other services in Mill Hill
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Mill Hill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Questions from Mill Hill
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
