Bath re-enamelling in Pyworthy without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When to call us in Pyworthy
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why Pyworthy customers choose us
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- One price list for the whole UK

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Pyworthy
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
