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. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Temple Fortune?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlord and trade work in Temple Fortune
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Temple Fortune questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Temple Fortune?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
Across the UK, and that includes Temple Fortune. Prices don’t change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Temple Fortune. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
