About our bath re-enamelling in Oakworth
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Oakworth: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
