About our bath re-enamelling in Wotter
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Plymouth.

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
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common questions in Wotter
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the whole of Plymouth?
Across the UK, and that includes Wotter. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you cover Wotter?
We do. Technicians travel to Wotter from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Repair or replace in Wotter?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Wotter. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wotter. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van 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’re there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
