- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Bath re-enamelling in Copthorne, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Copthorne: your questions answered
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Copthorne.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Copthorne?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Copthorne. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Copthorne. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
