Bath re-enamelling in West Bay without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common questions in West Bay

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wash away dyes and oils after use

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What affects the price in West Bay

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for West Bay. What changes the price is:

How many areas need work
Whether we combine several jobs
The material
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

Any details about the material
Details of any past repairs
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

Steel that has corroded right through
A metal bath with a through crack
A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

Victorian roll-tops
Basins & shower trays
Acrylic baths
Cast iron baths
Pressed steel baths
