Bath re-enamelling in Norwood Hill without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Norwood Hill

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Norwood Hill. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Norwood Hill

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Norwood Hill

If you manage property in Norwood Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
