Bath re-enamelling in Walston, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath in a colour that no longer suits 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 come back.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common questions in Walston
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Walston
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
