Bath Re-enamelling in Ascott Earl
Our technicians come to Ascott Earl for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
About our bath re-enamelling in Ascott Earl
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ascott Earl
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
