Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Kenwyn
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Bath re-enamelling in Kenwyn, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kenwyn
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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 next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
