Bath re-enamelling in Princetown, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Princetown: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Princetown and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

What else we do in Princetown
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repair or replace in Princetown?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you manage property in Princetown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
When to call us in Princetown
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
