Bath re-enamelling in Rumford, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rumford and across Cornwall.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

The most common problems we are called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An old resurfacing that is failing

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Rumford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Rumford and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Rumford
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
