The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Blackwater and across Isle of Wight.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Blackwater
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

Common questions in Blackwater
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Blackwater. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PO30 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Isle of Wight and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Blackwater, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Blackwater?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
