Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- A fixed quote before you book
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hooe Common
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hooe Common
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Hooe Common and the rest of East Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

What affects the price in Hooe Common
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hooe Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Hooe Common

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hooe Common?
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if they find more damage
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
