- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Plumpton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Plumpton
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about wear marks under the taps and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Plumpton
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Wear marks under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How your room will be protected
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
