Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Barton, Oxfordshire
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Barton, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath re-enamelling in Barton without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are frequently asked to fix wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Barton as everywhere else we work.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Barton?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common questions in Barton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
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.
Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Barton included. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX3 postcode.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
