About our bath re-enamelling in Whitchurch-on-Thames
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Whitchurch-on-Thames and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Whitchurch-on-Thames
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Whitchurch-on-Thames: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Whitchurch-on-Thames.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Common problems we fix in Whitchurch-on-Thames
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitchurch-on-Thames
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. 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.
