Bath re-enamelling for Stockwell homes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stockwell as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

About our bath re-enamelling in Stockwell

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. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Stockwell

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SW9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
