Your questions about bath re-enamelling in South Bersted
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in South Bersted?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover South Bersted?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Bersted and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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’s the part we put right.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in South Bersted
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that’s seen better days

What a repair cannot fix

- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including South Bersted. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in South Bersted
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
