Balls Green questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you work in Balls Green?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Balls Green and the rest of East Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Balls Green
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Repair dripping taps early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repairing versus replacing in Balls Green
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Balls Green
For anyone letting property in or around Balls Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Balls Green. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
