Bath re-enamelling at your home in Walford
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Rural addresses like Walford just need a little planning. Tell us about narrow lanes, long drives or parking, and we will take care of the rest.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. Somewhere as small as Walford, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
If you are in Walford and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
What affects the price in Walford
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

FAQs for Walford
Will you travel to Walford?
We do: small places like Walford are covered as standard. Tell us if access is tricky.
Is it worth repairing old baths in a period home in Walford?
Usually, yes. Older baths are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What we’re called out for in Walford
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
In the older streets of Walford, around landmarks like Church of St Michael, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. For a rural home like those around Walford, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why Walford customers choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Everything repaired in place

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
