Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hedge End
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hedge End?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SO30 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Hedge End

Hedge End questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are there extra charges for Hedge End?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 what we repair.
