Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Higher Town, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Higher Town questions
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Higher Town?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Isles of Scilly and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Higher Town?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What affects the price in Higher Town
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Higher Town. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
