Walmley: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
About our bath re-enamelling in Walmley
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a coating lifting around the plughole.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Walmley?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walmley
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
