About our bath re-enamelling in Sutton at Hone
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coating lifting around the plughole, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
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.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Common problems we fix in Sutton at Hone
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Sutton at Hone
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Sutton at Hone?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Sutton at Hone questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will the new finish last?
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.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
