Repairing versus replacing in Lynton
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling in Lynton without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Lynton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common problems we fix in Lynton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Common reasons people in Lynton contact us are:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
