What affects the price in Faygate
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Faygate
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Common reasons people in Faygate contact us are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to care for the finish
- What preparation is included
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
