Bath re-enamelling in Motcombe, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and chips and rust in more than one place, we can usually put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
