How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ockford Ridge
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ockford Ridge and across Surrey.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath that is rusted through

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Ockford Ridge
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

FAQs for Ockford Ridge
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Ockford Ridge?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GU8 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Ockford Ridge?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
