How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Most clients in Treswithian get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Bath re-enamelling in Treswithian, done in place

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. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Treswithian

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Treswithian

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Treswithian.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When to call us in Treswithian

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
