Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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.
Repair or replace in Hittisleigh?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts 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.

Questions from Hittisleigh
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you come to Hittisleigh?
We do. We send a technician to Hittisleigh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
