How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

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.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Oldbury: your questions answered

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We work UK-wide, so Oldbury is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Oldbury?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Oldbury. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts 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.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oldbury

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

When to call us in Oldbury

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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’s the part we put right.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
