Bath re-enamelling in Ninfield, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ninfield and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Advice
What else we do in Ninfield
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Ninfield
If you manage property in Ninfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Ninfield: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we are called out for in Ninfield
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

- Wear marks under the taps
