Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Everything repaired in place

What we are called out for in Buxted
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Buxted. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Buxted

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
