Bath Re-enamelling for Upper Clapton homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Upper Clapton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Upper Clapton
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How the visit works

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.

- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Upper Clapton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Upper Clapton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Common reasons people in Upper Clapton contact us are:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work

Upper Clapton questions
Do you cover Upper Clapton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Upper Clapton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
