Bath re-enamelling in Streatham Hill without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- 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
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Streatham Hill?
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Streatham Hill: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
