Bath re-enamelling in Ponsanooth without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
The first few days matter most: 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. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ponsanooth
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
When to call us in Ponsanooth
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

- The material and finish

Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
