Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

FAQs for Ditchling
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ditchling?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ditchling
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 typically cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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.
