About our bath re-enamelling in Winchmore Hill
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Winchmore Hill
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your HP7 postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
For landlords and businesses

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What affects the price in Winchmore Hill
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
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.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Winchmore Hill
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
