Bath Re-enamelling for Ockham homes
Bath re-enamelling in and around Ockham: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
About our bath re-enamelling in Ockham
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Ockham
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Ockham questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Ockham and the rest of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Ockham?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ockham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Ockham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
