Bath re-enamelling in Chilsworthy without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chilsworthy and across Devon.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that’s rusted through

When to call us in Chilsworthy

Questions to ask before booking

- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Advice
Common questions in Chilsworthy
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you work in Chilsworthy?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Chilsworthy and the rest of Devon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
