About our bath re-enamelling in Oakdale

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Oakdale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common problems we fix in Oakdale

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace in Oakdale?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. 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.

FAQs for Oakdale

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

Will the new finish last?

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

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Yes. Inside and out.
