About our bath re-enamelling in Highcliffe
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and several chips and rust patches.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Highcliffe. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
FAQs for Highcliffe
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
