How we handle bath re-enamelling in Coggins Mill
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coggins Mill
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
