How we handle bath re-enamelling in Roseworthy

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. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What we are called out for in Roseworthy

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Roseworthy

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Roseworthy?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Roseworthy and the rest of Cornwall. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Are there extra charges for Roseworthy?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Roseworthy

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
