How we handle bath re-enamelling in Southerton
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We’re often asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and staining under the taps and around the waste, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we’re called out for in Southerton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Look out for these signs:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

What else we do in Southerton
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Southerton questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover Southerton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Southerton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Southerton. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

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.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
