Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Walpole
Do you cover Walpole?
We do. Technicians travel to Walpole from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Bath re-enamelling in Walpole without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repairing versus replacing in Walpole
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Walpole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

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 get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Walpole
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Walpole
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Common reasons people in Walpole contact us are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
