Bath re-enamelling in Walker Barn, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Walker Barn
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Look out for these signs:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before booking anyone
- How to look after the finish
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Questions from Walker Barn
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
