Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Broadfield, West Sussex
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Broadfield, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Broadfield without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Broadfield. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Broadfield and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Broadfield questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Broadfield included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

If you manage property in Broadfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
