Common problems we fix in Fairlie
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:

- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Stains that will not shift

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fairlie
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Fairlie
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
