Bath re-enamelling in Oxenhope without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are often asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and stains that won’t shift, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Oxenhope questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Oxenhope is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When to call us in Oxenhope

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Stains that will not shift

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Oxenhope

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

For a price in Oxenhope, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
