DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Sea View: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Sea View?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BH14 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is

Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
