FAQs for Tolworth

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Tolworth and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Tolworth?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Bath re-enamelling in Tolworth, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Landlord and trade work in Tolworth

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tolworth?

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
