Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wymering
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wymering
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
