If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

Questions from Battle
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
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.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Battle use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Battle
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Battle?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that will not shift
- A coloured bath you want in white

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Battle
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Battle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
