Trusted bath re-enamelling in Titsey

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Titsey

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Titsey

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Titsey. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Titsey, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common problems we fix in Titsey

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Wear marks under the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

FAQs for Titsey

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Titsey?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Titsey

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Titsey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
