Bath re-enamelling in Mills Hill without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Mills Hill as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mills Hill
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mills Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What else we do in Mills Hill
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
FAQs for Mills Hill
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Mills Hill
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mills Hill. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your M24 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
