If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in St Mawes
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.
