Bath re-enamelling at your home in West Hill
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and wear marks under the taps.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We leave the room as we found it

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

What we are called out for in West Hill
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Stains that will not shift
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on

West Hill questions
Are there extra charges for West Hill?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to West Hill and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
