How we handle bath re-enamelling in Towednack
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, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Towednack. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Towednack
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Towednack as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
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.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Towednack questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Towednack?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Towednack included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
