How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Oxton
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you cover Oxton?
We do. We send a technician to Oxton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Oxton?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Oxton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
