About our bath re-enamelling in Wolvercote
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can generally put it right, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wolvercote
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wolvercote
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Wolvercote, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wolvercote, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
