Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Monkokehampton. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Monkokehampton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monkokehampton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Monkokehampton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Common questions in Monkokehampton
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover Monkokehampton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Monkokehampton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Monkokehampton and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
