Bath re-enamelling for Todd's Green homes

Bath re-enamelling in Todd's Green, done in place

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for Todd's Green

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you come to Todd's Green?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Todd's Green. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Todd's Green?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Todd's Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we’re called out for in Todd's Green

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Todd's Green. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Todd's Green, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
