Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Branstone, Isle of Wight
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Branstone, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Branstone without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Isle of Wight and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What we are called out for in Branstone
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that is failing

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
