Bath re-enamelling in Hempton, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Hempton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Hempton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hempton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hempton
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Stains that will not shift
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Comparing quotes
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairs by material
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 is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Hempton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Hempton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
