About our bath re-enamelling in Fairbourne
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Questions from Fairbourne
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Fairbourne?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are there extra charges for Fairbourne?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
