About our bath re-enamelling in Dukes Green
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Dukes Green
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Dukes Green questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across East Sussex.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Dukes Green get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
