About our bath re-enamelling in West Clyst

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Choosing a repair company

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths

  • Acrylic baths

What affects the price in West Clyst

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in West Clyst, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

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

FAQs for West Clyst

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Clyst.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in West Clyst?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Clyst and the rest of Devon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Repairing versus replacing in West Clyst

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
