About our bath re-enamelling in Blackbird Leys
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Blackbird Leys. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Blackbird Leys. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Blackbird Leys?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Common reasons people in Blackbird Leys contact us are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that will not shift
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
Blackbird Leys questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you cover Blackbird Leys?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Blackbird Leys from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
