Repairs by material
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 check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
About our bath re-enamelling in Welling
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

FAQs for Welling
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
Everywhere in the UK, Welling included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Welling
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that is failing
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Landlords, agents and businesses in Welling
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
