About our bath re-enamelling in Far Sawrey
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Far Sawrey
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 will get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Questions from Far Sawrey
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Far Sawrey?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work in Far Sawrey?
We do. We send a technician to Far Sawrey for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Landlord and trade work in Far Sawrey
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Far Sawrey use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
