How we handle bath re-enamelling in South Warnborough
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Warnborough
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
South Warnborough: your questions answered
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
What affects the price in South Warnborough
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in South Warnborough?
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
