About our bath re-enamelling in South Town
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common problems we fix in South Town
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Town use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in South Town
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in South Town
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a full day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
