Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Mongewell

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace in Mongewell?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mongewell

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Mongewell

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

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

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Mongewell. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
