Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Never use suction bath mats
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coton
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Coton?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered

- What aftercare is recommended
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
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.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Coton
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
