Bath re-enamelling at your home in Jumpers Common
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Common call-outs are for worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before 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 what we repair.
Common questions in Jumpers Common
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Do you come to Jumpers Common?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Jumpers Common for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Common problems we fix in Jumpers Common
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Jumpers Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BH23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
