Bath re-enamelling at your home in Trusham
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Trusham?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Trusham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Trusham: your questions answered
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Trusham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Trusham and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
