— Condition of the bath. Chips, rust spots and failed previous coatings all need repair work before spraying.

— What's being resurfaced. Adding basins, shower bases or wall tiles increases the price but is cheaper per item done together.

— Bath material. Cast iron, pressed steel and acrylic baths each need slightly different prep and primers.

— Colour change. Covering a strong colour (like 1970s avocado) in white can need extra coats.

— Ventilation & access. Small windowless bathrooms need extraction equipment and slow the job down.

— A resurfaced bath typically lasts 5–10 years with care — ask what warranty is included.

— Don't use the bath until the coating has fully cured, usually 24–48 hours.

— Resurfacing is usually a quarter or less of the cost of removing and replacing the bath.
