Bath re-enamelling in Torcross, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and stains that won’t shift, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Torcross. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TQ7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Holes rusted through the metal

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Torcross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Torcross
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Torcross: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What else we do in Torcross
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
