Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Devil's Den

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 staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Questions from Devil's Den

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are there extra charges for Devil's Den?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Devil's Den?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths

What affects the price in Devil's Den

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Devil's Den. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Devil's Den and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Advice

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Devil's Den?

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
