Bath re-enamelling in East Lydford without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Lydford
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Lydford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
