Bath re-enamelling in Constantine without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and worn patches where water runs and sits, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
What your bath is made of matters
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 is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Constantine: your questions answered
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Constantine?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TR11 postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Constantine
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Constantine use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Constantine
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Constantine
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
For a price in Constantine, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
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, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.
