Bath re-enamelling at your home in Walham
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What else we do in Walham
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Walham: your questions answered
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Walham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Walham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
