Bath re-enamelling in Walcot, done in place
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Walcot: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common problems we fix in Walcot
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before booking anyone

- If travel is included in the price

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
