Bath re-enamelling in Yelland without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Yelland?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Common reasons people in Yelland contact us are:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Yelland. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Yelland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Generally one visit, start to finish

What else we do in Yelland
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Common questions in Yelland
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
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.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Yelland?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
