Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Barsham
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barsham
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Common questions in Barsham
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
What we are called out for in Barsham
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Look out for any of the following:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
