Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

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.

Bath re-enamelling in Upper Street, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Upper Street and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Upper Street: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Are there extra charges for Upper Street?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Upper Street

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Common reasons people in Upper Street contact us are:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
