About our bath re-enamelling in Welch Whittle
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you are dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can generally put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Welch Whittle
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Welch Whittle customers choose us
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Welch Whittle get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Welch Whittle
Do you work in Welch Whittle?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Welch Whittle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Welch Whittle
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
