How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cremyll
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Cremyll: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
