About our bath re-enamelling in Tavistock
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tavistock and across Devon.

What affects the price in Tavistock
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tavistock
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repair or replace in Tavistock?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
