Bath re-enamelling in Pimlico without replacing anything
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. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Pimlico questions
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Pimlico
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Pimlico. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
