Bath re-enamelling for Bossiney homes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bossiney. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Bath re-enamelling in Bossiney, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Bossiney and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace in Bossiney?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Bossiney clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bossiney

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

Questions from Bossiney

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bossiney

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Look out for any of the following:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
