How we handle bath re-enamelling in Yarnton
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and staining under the taps and around the waste, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Yarnton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Yarnton
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Other services in Yarnton
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
