Bath re-enamelling for North Harrow homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in North Harrow

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in North Harrow

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we’re called out for in North Harrow

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
