What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

About our bath re-enamelling in Walham Green
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and several chips and rust patches, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Common questions in Walham Green
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Common problems we fix in Walham Green
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
What affects the price in Walham Green
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Walham Green. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
