Your questions about bath re-enamelling in New Oscott
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including New Oscott. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for New Oscott. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
