How we handle bath re-enamelling in Somerley
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Somerley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Somerley and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Questions from Somerley
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for Somerley?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Somerley and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places

What else we do in Somerley
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Somerley
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Somerley
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
