Bath re-enamelling in Billingshurst without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can typically put it right.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Billingshurst

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Billingshurst: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Treat the new finish gently at first: 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 have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Billingshurst

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Billingshurst, and we will reply with a fixed price.
