Bath re-enamelling in Copthorne without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We’re often asked to fix lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Copthorne

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Copthorne use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

When to call us in Copthorne

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairs by material

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.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Copthorne. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Copthorne questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Copthorne?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
