Repairing versus replacing in Bishop's Nympton
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Bath re-enamelling in Bishop's Nympton without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Questions from Bishop's Nympton
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
Across the UK, and that includes Bishop's Nympton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What we are called out for in Bishop's Nympton
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bishop's Nympton. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Bishop's Nympton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
