About our bath re-enamelling in Farnborough
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Farnborough
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farnborough use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Farnborough
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you come to Farnborough?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Farnborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Common problems we fix in Farnborough
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
