Need bath re-enamelling in West Hendon?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

About our bath re-enamelling in West Hendon

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a coloured bath you want in white.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Hendon and across Greater London.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What affects the price in West Hendon

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to West Hendon. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

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 what we repair.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in West Hendon

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in West Hendon

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
