About our bath re-enamelling in Fairham
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairing versus replacing in Fairham
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why Fairham customers choose us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Common problems we fix in Fairham
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that is failing
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NG11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Common questions in Fairham
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Fairham. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Fairham?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
What affects the price in Fairham
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
