How we handle bath re-enamelling in Osidge
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We are often asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and thin, worn enamel in places, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Osidge. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Osidge and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When to call us in Osidge
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Questions from Osidge
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you come to Osidge?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Osidge and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
