About our bath re-enamelling in Almodington
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we’re called out for in Almodington
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we do, step by step

- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Repairing versus replacing in Almodington
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Almodington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Almodington
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Almodington and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
