Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Marldon, Torbay

- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marldon as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Marldon
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we are called out for in Marldon
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Marldon
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Marldon included. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What affects the price in Marldon
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Marldon, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving 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.
