How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Milton
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Milton
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Great Milton
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Great Milton?
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.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
