Bath re-enamelling at your home in St Loye's
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in St Loye's and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
FAQs for St Loye's
