Bath re-enamelling in Henton

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Bath re-enamelling in Henton without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Henton

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Henton: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oxfordshire.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Henton

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
