Bath re-enamelling at your home in Parkfield
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Parkfield as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Questions from Parkfield
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Other services in Parkfield
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

Common problems we fix in Parkfield
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
