How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Street

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Street

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Street

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Street

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Questions from Street

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Street?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
