About our bath re-enamelling in Chipping Ongar
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. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace in Chipping Ongar?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Advice
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
