How we handle bath re-enamelling in Canford Magna
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have chips seen to early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Canford Magna: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Canford Magna?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Landlord and trade work in Canford Magna
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Canford Magna use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
