Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Thamesmead, Greater London
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Thamesmead, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Thamesmead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.
Bath re-enamelling in Thamesmead without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are stains that won’t shift and chips and rust in more than one place.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Thamesmead
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thamesmead as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Thamesmead

- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
