Bath Re-enamelling for Oxbridge homes
Our repair technicians come to Oxbridge for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath re-enamelling in Oxbridge without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can normally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Oxbridge
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Oxbridge
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Oxbridge
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
