Bath re-enamelling in Pilton without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Pilton
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to Pilton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Pilton and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
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 happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
