Bath re-enamelling in North Chideock 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. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

FAQs for North Chideock
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in North Chideock?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in North Chideock
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice.

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
