Bath re-enamelling in West Dulwich, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in West Dulwich and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in West Dulwich
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

FAQs for West Dulwich
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you come to West Dulwich?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to West Dulwich. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What affects the price in West Dulwich
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
