How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Bath re-enamelling in Walton, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and a coloured bath you want in white.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Walton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • 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.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Walton: your questions answered

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
