Bath re-enamelling in Rottingdean, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a coating lifting around the plughole, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops 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.

- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Rottingdean
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Several chips and rust patches
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Rottingdean clients choose us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Rottingdean, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What else we do in Rottingdean
Common questions in Rottingdean
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Rottingdean?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rottingdean for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Rottingdean. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
