How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Horton. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Horton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What else we do in Horton
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Horton
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Look out for any of the following:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Horton: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
We cover the entire UK, including Horton and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
