Bath Re-enamelling in Roundswell
Damaged bath in Roundswell? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that won’t shift
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
DIY kit or professional 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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our bath re-enamelling in Roundswell
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help.
In a smaller place like Roundswell, homes are frequently houses and bungalows rather than flats. If the bath is sound, bath re-enamelling saves replacing it.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Roundswell as everywhere else we work.

When to call us in Roundswell
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
For older houses around Roundswell, near landmarks such as United Reform Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.

Work for landlords and builders

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Roundswell
My house in Roundswell is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Typically: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send pictures and we’ll advise.
I let a flat near Barnstaple station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again. For a home in Roundswell, we normally park close by and start straight away, after agreeing the plan with you.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
