When to call us in Woodside Green
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Bath re-enamelling in Woodside Green, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Woodside Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Related advice
Repairing versus replacing in Woodside Green
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Woodside Green

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
