Bath re-enamelling at your home in George Nympton

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in George Nympton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What we are called out for in George Nympton

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Choosing a repair company

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.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What affects the price in George Nympton

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

George Nympton questions

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do the materials smell?

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
