What else we do in Kingsteignton
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kingsteignton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Kingsteignton questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Do you cover Kingsteignton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kingsteignton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
