Bath re-enamelling in Goonhavern, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Goonhavern and across Cornwall.

Common problems we fix in Goonhavern
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Stains that will not shift
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

FAQs for Goonhavern
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you cover Goonhavern?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Goonhavern. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 frequently lifts.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Goonhavern
- Pressed steel baths

What affects the price in Goonhavern
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
