Bath re-enamelling in Pitcaple, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Pitcaple, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What affects the price in Pitcaple
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
If you’re in Pitcaple and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Pitcaple
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Pitcaple
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
