Bath re-enamelling across Poole: what to expect
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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.
Cost
Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Around Poole
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to St Clements, Uplands School and St Edward's Roman Catholic/Church of England School, among other places. Nearby too are Poole Park (1 mile south-west) and Ocean Academy Poole (within half a mile south-west). Poole’s nearest station is Parkstone (Dorset) station, roughly 0.8 miles south-east.

Common problems we fix in Poole
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
For anyone letting property in or around Poole, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
Poole: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you work in Poole?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Poole. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Poole. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
