Bath Re-enamelling for Fankerton homes
Bath re-enamelling across Fankerton and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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 until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Bath re-enamelling in Fankerton, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fankerton as everywhere else we work.

What affects the price in Fankerton
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Questions from Fankerton
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
