How we handle bath re-enamelling in Colehill
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Colehill and across Dorset.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Common questions in Colehill
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Colehill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colehill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Colehill
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Colehill?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel

Repairing versus replacing in Colehill
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. 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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
