Your questions about bath re-enamelling in East Grinstead
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in East Grinstead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Grinstead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in East Grinstead
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
