Southwick's diverse housing stock presents various enamel damage patterns we've mastered over 30 years. Period properties near St Michael's Church often feature original cast iron baths with enamel worn thin through decades of use. These treasured fixtures develop characteristic wear patterns around the overflow and base, requiring expert restoration to preserve their heritage value.

Our colour-matching expertise ensures repairs blend seamlessly with unusual finishes popular in these upmarket properties.
The converted industrial buildings around Basin Road South present unique issues. These loft-style apartments often feature statement baths where any damage becomes a focal point.

Landlords appreciate our efficient service and 12 months warranty, knowing repairs will withstand tenant changeovers while maintaining property standards required by letting agencies.
A beautiful Victorian property near Southwick Green had an original roll-top bath with extensive enamel damage. Years of use had worn through to the cast iron in places, with multiple chips around the taps. Complete re-enamelling would have cost over £800 elsewhere. We restored the entire surface for £485, preserving this period feature perfectly. The owner was delighted - the bath looks exactly as it would have in 1890, covered by our 12 months warranty. This saved them £3,500 versus a period-appropriate replacement.
A penthouse apartment overlooking the harbour had a designer grey bath with a significant chip on the corner, caused during balcony door installation. The unusual metallic finish made colour matching critical. With 30 years' experience in specialist finishes, we achieved a perfect match. The repair took just two hours and cost £225, avoiding the £2,800 replacement quote from the original supplier. The managing agent now uses us for all bath enamel repairs in the development.

Every successful bath enamel repair begins with thorough assessment. Our experienced technicians examine the damage type, depth, and surrounding enamel condition. In Southwick's older properties, we often discover multiple layers of previous repairs that need addressing. This expertise, built over 30 years, ensures we identify all issues before starting work.
Preparation is crucial for lasting repairs. We meticulously clean the damaged area, removing any rust, loose enamel, or previous poor-quality repairs. The surface is then etched to create optimal adhesion for our specialist compounds. This attention to detail is why our repairs last years, not months.
For chips and cracks, we use professional-grade fillers that bond at a molecular level with the existing enamel. Multiple thin layers are applied, allowing proper curing between applications. This prevents shrinkage and ensures the repair remains invisible even under close inspection.
Colour matching requires exceptional skill, particularly with aged enamel that's changed over decades. We carry extensive colour samples and can mix custom shades on-site. Whether matching a vintage mint green in a Southwick period property or a contemporary grey in a harbour apartment, precision is guaranteed.
The final enamel application uses professional spray equipment for full resurfacing or careful hand application for spot repairs. We apply multiple coats to achieve the correct thickness and durability. The finish is then polished to match the surrounding gloss level perfectly.
Quality checks ensure every repair meets our exacting standards before we leave. This includes water testing, visual inspection under different lighting, and ensuring smooth transitions between repaired and original surfaces. Only when completely satisfied do we issue your 12 months warranty certificate, though most repairs last far longer with proper care.

Multiple chips/scratches from £245
