Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newton Poppleford
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Newton Poppleford questions
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Newton Poppleford?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Newton Poppleford?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Newton Poppleford?
We do. We send a technician to Newton Poppleford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Landlord and trade work in Newton Poppleford
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Newton Poppleford, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newton Poppleford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
If you’re in Newton Poppleford and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
