Bath re-enamelling at your home in Calshot
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Calshot customers choose us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Calshot
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you come to Calshot?
We do. We send a technician to Calshot for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Calshot
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
