About our bath re-enamelling in Charlton-on-Otmoor
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
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.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Charlton-on-Otmoor
Do you work in Charlton-on-Otmoor?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Charlton-on-Otmoor and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Generally one visit, start to finish

- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Charlton-on-Otmoor
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
