Bath re-enamelling in Buckland Brewer, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Buckland Brewer and across Devon.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Repairing versus replacing in Buckland Brewer
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Common questions in Buckland Brewer
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are there extra charges for Buckland Brewer?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
