How we handle bath re-enamelling in Mevagissey
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Mevagissey and across Cornwall.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mevagissey as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL26 postcode.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What we’re called out for in Mevagissey
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.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that will not shift
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mevagissey. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
