About our bath re-enamelling in St Blazey
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

St Blazey: your questions answered
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Are there extra charges for St Blazey?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When to call us in St Blazey
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St Blazey
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What else we do in St Blazey
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
