Questions from Maybush
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
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.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Maybush
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a coloured bath you want in white.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Southampton.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When to call us in Maybush
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
