Bath re-enamelling at your home in Fairseat
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Fairseat, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairseat use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Fairseat
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
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.
Common problems we fix in Fairseat
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.

Related advice
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.
