Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Pool, Devon
Bath re-enamelling in and around Pool: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Pool without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Questions from Pool
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Pool
- Basins & shower trays

- Fixed prices from your photos
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For anyone letting property in or around Pool, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
