About our bath re-enamelling in Shutford
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays

How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used 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 usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access

Common questions in Shutford
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
