Bath re-enamelling across Osmington and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on 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 following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage

Bath re-enamelling in Osmington, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Common questions in Osmington
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Osmington. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
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. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Osmington
If you manage property in Osmington, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Osmington?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
