About our bath re-enamelling in St Erney
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are frequently asked to fix a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including St Erney. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
St Erney: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
What we are called out for in St Erney
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Common reasons people in St Erney contact us are:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white
Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
