Bath re-enamelling in Walsoken, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Walsoken
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What affects the price in Walsoken
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
