Bath Re-enamelling for Soake homes
Our technicians come to Soake for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Bath re-enamelling in Soake, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Soake and across Hampshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Soake. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

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. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Soake
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Soake: your questions answered
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Soake?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
When to call us in Soake
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- An old resurfacing that is failing
