These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Bath re-enamelling in Lunsford's Cross, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
