Bath re-enamelling in Tresamble without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and stains that won’t shift, we can help, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tresamble and across Cornwall.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Tresamble
Do you work in Tresamble?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tresamble from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tresamble. Prices don’t change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us

- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tresamble
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
- 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.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
