About our bath re-enamelling in Waterloo
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re frequently asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waterloo use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Poole and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Waterloo questions
Do you come to Waterloo?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Waterloo and the rest of Poole. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you cover the entire of Poole?
The entire UK, including all of Poole. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Waterloo
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
