Bath re-enamelling near Fairlands

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath re-enamelling in Fairlands without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Fairlands. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Never use suction bath mats

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Fairlands

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Fairlands?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fairlands from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Fairlands. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
