Bath re-enamelling in Ovington without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northumberland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we’re called out for in Ovington
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Ovington
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?

Are there extra charges for Ovington?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
