About our bath re-enamelling in Constantine Bay
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We’re frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Constantine Bay
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

When to call us in Constantine Bay
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Questions from Constantine Bay
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Constantine Bay and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Constantine Bay. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
