Bath Re-enamelling in Whitney-on-Wye
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Whitney-on-Wye, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Whitney-on-Wye
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
If you manage property in Whitney-on-Wye, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Questions from Whitney-on-Wye
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Whitney-on-Wye?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Whitney-on-Wye and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
