How we handle bath re-enamelling in North Bockhampton
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in North Bockhampton

Do you come to North Bockhampton?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in North Bockhampton?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Customers typically contact us about:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
