Bath re-enamelling in Great Torrington without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

FAQs for Great Torrington
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
