Bath re-enamelling in Southwood without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches, we can usually put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common problems we fix in Southwood
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Common reasons people in Southwood contact us include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GU14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Southwood questions
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Landlord and trade work in Southwood
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
