How the visit 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 with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Sutton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Sutton

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Questions from Sutton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Sutton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Sutton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sutton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Sutton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
