About our bath re-enamelling in Hastings
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hastings and across East Sussex.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What else we do in Hastings
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Hastings
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Sussex.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Landlord and trade work in Hastings
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Hastings get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
