About our bath re-enamelling in Cold Cotes
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
FAQs for Cold Cotes
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cold Cotes. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cold Cotes, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
