How we handle bath re-enamelling in Banbury
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
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
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
If you are in Banbury and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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 day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
FAQs for Banbury
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Banbury. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we are called out for in Banbury
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
