About our bath re-enamelling in Lower Beeding
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and thin, worn enamel in places.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
