How we handle bath re-enamelling in Kempshott
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Repair or replace in Kempshott?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Common problems we fix in Kempshott
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What else we do in Kempshott
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Kempshott
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What affects the price in Kempshott
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Kempshott. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kempshott, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
