Bath re-enamelling in Shover's Green, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shover's Green and across East Sussex.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Shover's Green
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not 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.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Shover's Green and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Shover's Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Questions from Shover's Green
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
