Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Hill Head, Hampshire
Bath re-enamelling in and around Hill Head: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Bath re-enamelling in Hill Head without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We’re frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace in Hill Head?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hill Head use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hill Head: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
