- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Lapford
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 a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What else we do in Lapford
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lapford
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lapford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Lapford is about 15 miles west of Tiverton, in Devon. From the centre of Lapford to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Lapford is one of 586 towns and villages in Devon where we work.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
What we’re called out for in Lapford
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What affects the price in Lapford
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lapford. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
