How we handle bath re-enamelling in Steventon
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and a coloured bath you want in white.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Steventon
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Store bottles off the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Steventon
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Stains that won’t shift
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Wear marks under the taps
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Steventon: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your OX13 postcode.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
