Bath re-enamelling in Sugley, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sugley
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
