How we handle bath re-enamelling in Treviscoe
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Treviscoe
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Treviscoe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.

Common questions in Treviscoe
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Treviscoe
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
What affects the price in Treviscoe
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
