Bath Re-enamelling for Portsmouth Point homes
Bath re-enamelling for Portsmouth Point, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that will not shift
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Portsmouth Point
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are often asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Portsmouth Point
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover Portsmouth Point?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Portsmouth Point for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Portsmouth Point
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Portsmouth Point
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Portsmouth Point?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Portsmouth Point customers choose us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
