Bath Re-enamelling for East Hagbourne homes
Bath re-enamelling across East Hagbourne and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in East Hagbourne without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

When to call us in East Hagbourne
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in East Hagbourne
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What affects the price in East Hagbourne
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
