About our bath re-enamelling in Southwick
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Southwick
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace in Southwick?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. 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.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it

FAQs for Southwick
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Cast iron
