- Resurfacing from £350

Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wallsworth
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and wear marks under the taps, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Wallsworth. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wallsworth, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wallsworth
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
Questions from Wallsworth
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are there extra charges for Wallsworth?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
