About our bath re-enamelling in Hillhead
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hillhead and across Hampshire.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What else we do in Hillhead
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Hillhead
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hillhead
- Pressed steel baths

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Landlord and trade work in Hillhead
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hillhead. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
