Bath Re-enamelling for Waterditch homes
Bath re-enamelling for Waterditch, without a refit. Get a fixed quote from your photos, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Waterditch
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We are often asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and worn patches where water runs and sits, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Waterditch
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 will say so.
Do you come to Waterditch?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Waterditch and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Waterditch. Prices do not change with location.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
