Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ottery St Mary
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. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
FAQs for Ottery St Mary
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you cover Ottery St Mary?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ottery St Mary. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Landlord and trade work in Ottery St Mary
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
