How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hellingly
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and worn patches where water runs and sits.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Common questions in Hellingly
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hellingly?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
