How we handle bath re-enamelling in Whixall
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Whixall and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Whixall
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 Whixall customers choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the entire UK
- Everything repaired in place
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Common problems we fix in Whixall
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Whixall get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Whixall
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Whixall?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SY13 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?
All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
