What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Shipton-under-Wychwood: your questions answered
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Shipton-under-Wychwood
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Several chips and rust patches
Before booking anyone
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shipton-under-Wychwood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
