Questions from Hankham
Do you cover the entire of East Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Hankham and the rest of East Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hankham?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Other services in Hankham
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Most jobs done in one visit

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
