DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Looe
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What we’re called out for in Looe
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Repairing versus replacing in Looe
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
