About our bath re-enamelling in Farr
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Farr questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
