Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maiden Newton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Bath re-enamelling in Maiden Newton without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Maiden Newton
What affects the price in Maiden Newton
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Maiden Newton
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Common questions in Maiden Newton
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Maiden Newton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
