Hound: your questions answered
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hound?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hound
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and worn patches where water runs and sits, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Most customers in Hound get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common problems we fix in Hound
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Look out for these signs:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
