How we handle bath re-enamelling in Charter Alley
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When to call us in Charter Alley
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Charter Alley
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

FAQs for Charter Alley
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
The entire UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Charter Alley. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Charter Alley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Charter Alley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charter Alley
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charter Alley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
