Repairing versus replacing in Poole
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling in Poole, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and stains that won’t shift, we can help.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Poole.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Poole
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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.

When to call us in Poole
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.

- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

FAQs for Poole
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Poole?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BH12 postcode.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
