Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Knightsmill, Cornwall
Damaged bath in Knightsmill? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Knightsmill
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common questions in Knightsmill
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Knightsmill?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Knightsmill?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Common reasons people in Knightsmill contact us are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knightsmill
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- 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 if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
