Bath re-enamelling at your home in Chivenor
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chivenor
For anyone letting property in or around Chivenor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Chivenor
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
