About our bath re-enamelling in Stoborough Heath
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stoborough Heath and across Dorset.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stoborough Heath

- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Stoborough Heath
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Stoborough Heath?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in Stoborough Heath?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your photos

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
