Do you need bath re-enamelling in Merston?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Common reasons people in Merston contact us include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Merston
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re frequently asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Merston
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Merston?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Merston?
We do. Technicians travel to Merston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What affects the price in Merston
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Merston. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode

- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
