Bath re-enamelling near Neithrop

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Neithrop

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Neithrop questions

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

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

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Neithrop. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
