Bath re-enamelling in Mount Pleasant, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re often asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Somewhere as small as Mount Pleasant, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Bath re-enamelling in place avoids all of that.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Older homes around Mount Pleasant may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.
Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What else we do in Mount Pleasant
For landlords and businesses

Common problems we fix in Mount Pleasant
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
For older houses around Mount Pleasant, near landmarks such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there. For a rural address like Mount Pleasant, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the bath re-enamelling, so there is no second trip.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
