Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Grenofen, Devon
We travel to Grenofen for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that won’t shift
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Grenofen
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. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Grenofen?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No extra charge for your area
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grenofen
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When to call us in Grenofen
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
FAQs for Grenofen
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are there extra charges for Grenofen?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Grenofen. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
