Southmarsh questions
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for Southmarsh?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Bath re-enamelling in Southmarsh, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Southmarsh
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
