Bath re-enamelling in Walditch without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

When to call us in Walditch
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Questions from Walditch
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Walditch included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Walditch
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walditch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
