Bath re-enamelling at your home in Frogham
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Frogham as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Frogham
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Frogham and the rest of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frogham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
