Bath re-enamelling in Trentishoe, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are chips and rust in more than one place and thin, worn enamel in places.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Trentishoe questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Are there extra charges for Trentishoe?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
We cover the entire UK, including Trentishoe and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
Stick to 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. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Trentishoe
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that is seen better days

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Trentishoe
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trentishoe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
