Bath Re-enamelling for Fifehead Neville homes
Bath re-enamelling for Fifehead Neville, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your photos, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fifehead Neville
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fifehead Neville as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Fifehead Neville
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Fifehead Neville?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole

What else we do in Fifehead Neville
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Fifehead Neville

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
