Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in East Allington
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What else we do in East Allington
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in East Allington?
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What to look for in a quote
- How to care for the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repair or replace in East Allington?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. 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.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in East Allington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
