Bath re-enamelling for Norman's Green homes

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Norman's Green

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norman's Green

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

FAQs for Norman's Green

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do you cover the entire of Devon?

We cover the whole UK, including Norman's Green and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Norman's Green?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Norman's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
