About our bath re-enamelling in Seven Dials
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Seven Dials. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
