How we handle bath re-enamelling in Long Wittenham

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Long Wittenham and across Oxfordshire.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Long Wittenham: your questions answered

Do you work in Long Wittenham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Long Wittenham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Long Wittenham?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your OX14 postcode.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.

When to call us in Long Wittenham

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
