Bath Re-enamelling in Sydenham Hill
Local bath re-enamelling for Sydenham Hill: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
About our bath re-enamelling in Sydenham Hill
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’re often asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Sydenham Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Sydenham Hill, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Sydenham Hill: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Sydenham Hill

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
