FAQs for Forest Row
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

What affects the price in Forest Row
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
