Bath re-enamelling in Balls Cross, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We are often asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
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.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Balls Cross
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that is seen better days

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Balls Cross, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Balls Cross: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Balls Cross?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Balls Cross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Balls Cross and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the new finish last?
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.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
