Bath re-enamelling in Trolver Croft without replacing anything
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. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Questions from Trolver Croft
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We cover the entire UK, including Trolver Croft and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Landlord and trade work in Trolver Croft
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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.
