Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Farley
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Farley: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common problems we fix in Farley
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that’s rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Farley
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
