Bath re-enamelling near Fairford Leys

Bath re-enamelling in Fairford Leys, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Fairford Leys

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Fairford Leys

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Fairford Leys, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

FAQs for Fairford Leys

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

What your bath is made of matters

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 check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
