- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
About our bath re-enamelling in Dunveth
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and thin, worn enamel in places.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dunveth and across Cornwall.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Take a look at our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What affects the price in Dunveth
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunveth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When to call us in Dunveth
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Common reasons people in Dunveth contact us are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled

Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
