Trusted bath re-enamelling in Wandsworth

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

About our bath re-enamelling in Wandsworth

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repair or replace in Wandsworth?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Wandsworth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Wandsworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wandsworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
