How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fairford

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Questions from Fairford

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Fairford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you come to Fairford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Fairford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

What affects the price in Fairford

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Fairford. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Fairford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Fairford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
