Bath re-enamelling in Great Oxendon without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repairing versus replacing in Great Oxendon
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Great Oxendon
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Great Oxendon and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
What affects the price in Great Oxendon
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Oxendon. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: 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.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Oxendon as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Great Oxendon
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
