Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Walton-on-Thames. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Walton-on-Thames

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are there extra charges for Walton-on-Thames?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

Common problems we fix in Walton-on-Thames

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
