Bath re-enamelling at your home in Winchelsea Beach
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Winchelsea Beach: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Winchelsea Beach
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include

Repair or replace in Winchelsea Beach?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour-matched on site

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winchelsea Beach as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
