How we handle bath re-enamelling in Millison's Wood
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches, we can help, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Millison's Wood and across Coventry.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Questions from Millison's Wood
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you cover the entire of Coventry?
We work UK-wide, so Millison's Wood is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CV5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Repair or replace in Millison's Wood?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
When to call us in Millison's Wood

People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
