How we handle bath re-enamelling in West Marden
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
In a village like West Marden, some baths have been in for many years. A sound older bath is well worth repairing.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairing versus replacing in West Marden
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. Older homes around West Marden may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for West Marden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colour-matched on site

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

West Marden questions
Do you cover villages like West Marden?
Yes, we cover the whole UK, villages included, at no extra charge.
I let a flat near Rowlands Castle station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, we often work between tenancies, and we can quote for several properties together.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
