Need bath re-enamelling in Sundridge?

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Bath re-enamelling in Sundridge, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sundridge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Sundridge

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Sundridge and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BR1 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Never use suction bath mats

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sundridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Sundridge

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that will not shift
