Bath Re-enamelling in Halnaker
Problem with your bath in Halnaker? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Halnaker
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Halnaker and across West Sussex.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Halnaker as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Halnaker
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Repairing versus replacing in Halnaker
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Halnaker. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
