How we handle bath re-enamelling in Telegraph Hill
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Telegraph Hill
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
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.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Telegraph Hill
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Stains that won’t shift
- A roll-top that is seen better days

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
