Bath re-enamelling in South Wimbledon without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in South Wimbledon as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in South Wimbledon
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in South Wimbledon
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Wimbledon
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
