Common questions in Potter's Green
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Potter's Green and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Potter's Green?
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Stains that will not shift
- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that is failing

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. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
