About our bath re-enamelling in Wootton

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Roll-top bath being refinished by a Surface Doctor technician

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Wootton questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wootton?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Common reasons people in Wootton contact us include:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
