Bath re-enamelling in Stanmore, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Stanmore questions
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
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 will quote them together.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stanmore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanmore
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanmore use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
