Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Knowle, Hampshire
Our technicians come to Knowle for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Knowle
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Knowle
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you cover Knowle?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Knowle. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Knowle?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PO17 postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Knowle, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When to call us in Knowle
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
