Bath re-enamelling in Rossmore, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Questions from Rossmore
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Poole. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When to call us in Rossmore
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
