Bath re-enamelling in Blackwater without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Blackwater
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Blackwater
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Blackwater?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR4 postcode.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
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.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackwater use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Blackwater. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One price list for the entire UK

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Blackwater?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
