Bath re-enamelling in Uckfield without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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 is the part we put right.
Repair or replace in Uckfield?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Uckfield: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Uckfield?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
