Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Mount Pleasant: your questions answered
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are there extra charges for Mount Pleasant?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
