Bath Re-enamelling in Sprig's Alley
We travel to Sprig's Alley for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Sprig's Alley. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
About our bath re-enamelling in Sprig's Alley
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sprig's Alley and across Oxfordshire.

Sprig's Alley: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Are there extra charges for Sprig's Alley?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why Sprig's Alley clients choose us

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
