Bath Re-enamelling for Crook of Devon homes
Damaged bath in Crook of Devon? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Crook of Devon
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a coating lifting around the plughole, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Crook of Devon
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Crook of Devon. The price depends on:
- The type of damage

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back

Common questions in Crook of Devon
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
