How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rayne
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Rayne and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

FAQs for Rayne
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rayne as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we’re called out for in Rayne
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
