Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tubney
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Bath re-enamelling in Tubney without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For a price in Tubney, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Tubney questions
Do you cover Tubney?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tubney and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a 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.
