Bath re-enamelling at your home in North Prospect
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including North Prospect. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Questions from North Prospect
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in North Prospect.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What we are called out for in North Prospect
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Common reasons people in North Prospect contact us are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in North Prospect
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Plymouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
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.
