Bath re-enamelling in Oxcroft Estate

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Oxcroft Estate

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace in Oxcroft Estate?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

FAQs for Oxcroft Estate

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Oxcroft Estate

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
