Bath re-enamelling in Rilla Mill, done in place
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

FAQs for Rilla Mill
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Rilla Mill?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rilla Mill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rilla Mill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
