About our bath re-enamelling 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 regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and a coloured bath you want in white.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Frogham
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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 it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Frogham. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Most customers in Frogham get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Frogham?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repairs by material
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
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
