Bath re-enamelling in Plummers Plain, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Plummers Plain questions
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RH13 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Common problems we fix in Plummers Plain
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Plummers Plain
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Plummers Plain
- Basins & shower trays
