Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Upper Arncott, Oxfordshire
We travel to Upper Arncott for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
When to call us in Upper Arncott
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Before booking anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Upper Arncott
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can generally put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Upper Arncott
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Upper Arncott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
FAQs for Upper Arncott
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Upper Arncott. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you cover Upper Arncott?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Upper Arncott and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Arncott
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Upper Arncott, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
