Bath re-enamelling for Sydenham homes

What we are called out for in Sydenham

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling in Sydenham, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Landlord and trade work in Sydenham

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sydenham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Sydenham

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common questions in Sydenham

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover the entire of Warwickshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Sydenham and the rest of Warwickshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
