Bath re-enamelling in Maplehurst

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Maplehurst

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coating lifting around the plughole.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Maplehurst

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maplehurst use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Maplehurst

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

All of West Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you cover Maplehurst?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Maplehurst and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

Repair or replace in Maplehurst?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Maplehurst and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Maplehurst

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
