About Bath Fixer Farnham

Bath Fixer Farnham provide specialist bath repair, resurfacing, and enamel restoration across Farnham and the surrounding Surrey countryside. Our technicians restore damaged bath surfaces of every kind — from hairline enamel chips on Georgian cast iron baths to deep cracks in modern acrylic tubs — giving property owners a professional, lasting alternative to the expense and upheaval of full bath replacement.

Farnham's housing spans a wide range of periods and styles. The town centre and conservation area contain a significant number of Georgian and early Victorian properties, many with original cast iron baths that have been in place for over a century. Surrounding streets built during the Edwardian and inter-war periods feature pressed steel baths that are now showing the effects of age — worn enamel, surface chips, and rust patches where moisture has worked its way beneath the coating. The newer developments along the Aldershot and Badshot Lea fringes predominantly use acrylic baths and shower trays, which are vulnerable to impact cracks and stress fractures around their edges.

Bath Fixer Farnham tailor every repair to the material, condition, and age of the bath in front of us. Our dual bonding agent system — where two primers are applied and cured at high temperature before the final enamel coat — creates a substantially stronger adhesion than the single-primer approach used by most refinishing companies. The result is a factory-quality surface that resists chipping, peeling, and discolouration for years.

Beyond baths, we also repair sinks, basins, shower trays, ceramic tiles, granite worktops, uPVC surfaces, and solid surface fixtures. If a hard surface in your Farnham home is damaged, chipped, cracked, or worn — Bath Fixer can almost certainly restore it at a fraction of the replacement cost.

Nearby Areas We Serve: The same types of period bathroom repair challenges we address in Farnham are common throughout the wider area. Property owners in Godalming and Guildford face comparable issues with ageing baths, enamel deterioration, and impact damage on both traditional and modern surfaces.

Why Farnham Property Owners Choose Bath Fixer

Farnham occupies an enviable position in the Surrey property market — a prosperous market town with a rich architectural heritage stretching from the medieval period through Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian eras to the present day. Each generation of building brought different bathroom fixtures and materials, and each presents distinct repair challenges that require genuine specialist knowledge.

The Georgian and early Victorian properties clustered around Castle Street, West Street, and the Farnham conservation area frequently contain original cast iron baths — some over a hundred years old — where the enamel has crazed, chipped, or worn thin over decades. The Edwardian and inter-war houses found across Wrecclesham, Upper Hale, and the roads leading towards Rowledge typically have pressed steel baths prone to surface chips, rust spots where moisture has penetrated worn enamel, and widespread dulling from decades of cleaning.

Bath Fixer Farnham understand these distinctions. We do not apply a generic approach — every repair is tailored to the specific material, age, and condition of the surface. That expertise is the difference between a repair that holds for years and one that deteriorates within months.

Real examples of restoration work completed by Bath Fixer across the Farnham and Surrey area

Cast Iron Roll-Top Bath — Castle Street

Farnham, GU9
The Challenge

A homeowner in a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse near Castle Street had a beautiful original cast iron roll-top bath that had deteriorated significantly over the decades. The enamel had crazed along the waterline, with deep yellowing across the base and several large chips around the plug hole and tap end. A bathroom fitter had quoted over £3,500 to remove the bath — requiring specialist lifting due to the weight and the narrow staircase — source a replacement, and reinstate the plumbing and tiling.

Our Solution

Bath Fixer Farnham cleaned and degreased the entire surface, treated the crazed areas to stabilise the existing enamel, and filled each chip with high-adhesion compound to restore the original profile. The full bath was then keyed, primed with our dual bonding agents, spray-coated with colour-matched enamel, and infrared cured on site. A final polish and perimeter reseal completed the restoration.

The Result

The original bath was restored to a pristine, bright white finish with no evidence of the previous crazing or chip damage. The homeowner preserved a period feature that is integral to the property's character — at a fraction of the replacement cost and without the structural disruption that removing a cast iron bath from a listed building would have entailed.

Pressed Steel Bath — Wrecclesham Road

Wrecclesham, GU10
The Challenge

A landlord managing a 1930s semi-detached rental property on Wrecclesham Road contacted us about a pressed steel bath that had seen heavy use across several tenancies. The enamel was worn thin along the base, rust stains had appeared around the drain and overflow, and a cluster of chips near the tap end had been poorly patched with a DIY repair kit that was already peeling away. The property was between tenants, and the landlord needed a fast, professional repair to avoid delaying the incoming tenancy.

Our Solution

We removed the failed DIY repair material, treated the corroded areas with a specialist rust converter, and rebuilt the damaged sections with structural-grade filler. The entire bath surface was prepared, primed with both bonding agents, and spray-finished with a durable white enamel. Infrared curing and a full polish completed the job within a single working day.

The Result

The bath was returned to a clean, smooth, professional finish — completely unrecognisable from its previous condition. The landlord was able to proceed with the new tenancy on schedule, and the total cost came in at less than a quarter of the replacement quote. A written guarantee was provided covering the workmanship and materials.

What Our Farnham Clients Say

Feedback from homeowners and landlords who have used Bath Fixer in Surrey

Margaret H.
Farnham — 10/02/2025

"Absolutely delighted with the work done on our Victorian roll-top bath. The enamel had been chipping for years and we dreaded replacing it. Bath Fixer restored the entire surface in one visit — looks factory fresh and the colour match is spot on. Highly recommended."

James K.
Wrecclesham — 18/11/2024

"Called about a cracked shower tray in our rental property. Ilia came out within days, repaired the crack and resurfaced the tray beautifully. Saved us hundreds compared to a full replacement. Professional, tidy, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing."

Caroline T.
Rowledge — 05/08/2024

"We had multiple chips in our pressed steel bath — the result of years of use and a few dropped bottles. Alex repaired every one and the bath looks brand new. Excellent value compared to what a bathroom fitter quoted us. Would use Bath Fixer again without hesitation."

When You Need a Bath Repair in Farnham

Common situations where Bath Fixer Farnham can help restore your bath without the cost of replacement

Accidental Impact Damage

Dropped bottles, heavy shower fittings, tiles that have come loose during renovation — accidental impact is the most frequent cause of bath chips and cracks in Farnham homes. A single chip can expose the substrate to moisture, leading to rust on steel and cast iron baths or discolouration on acrylic surfaces. Prompt professional repair prevents the damage from spreading.

Hard Water Staining & Limescale

Farnham's water supply carries a moderate to high mineral content, which gradually deposits limescale and hard water stains across bath surfaces. Over years, this builds into a dull, rough layer that cannot be removed by standard cleaning. Professional resurfacing strips the build-up and restores a smooth, bright finish.

Pre-Sale Property Preparation

A worn or chipped bath can reduce the perceived value of a bathroom during viewings. In Farnham's competitive property market, where average house prices sit well above the national figure, a professional bath resurface is one of the most cost-effective cosmetic upgrades a vendor can make before listing.

Ageing Enamel on Period Baths

Many of Farnham's Georgian and Victorian properties still have original cast iron baths where the enamel has crazed, yellowed, or worn through. Replacing these baths is often impractical — they are heavy, built into tiled surrounds, and in listed buildings may require consent. Resurfacing restores the finish while preserving the period character.

End-of-Tenancy Restoration

Landlords across Farnham and the surrounding villages frequently require fast bath repairs between tenancies. Tenant damage — chips, scratches, staining — can reduce a property's appeal to incoming renters. A professional repair restores the bath quickly and at a fraction of the replacement cost, keeping the letting schedule on track.

Failed DIY Repairs

We regularly attend Farnham properties where a previous DIY repair kit has failed — peeling, yellowing, or producing a rough, uneven patch that looks worse than the original damage. Professional rectification removes the failed material completely and applies a lasting, factory-quality finish in its place.

Frequently Asked Questions — Bath Repair Farnham

Common questions answered by Bath Fixer Farnham

Professional resurfacing typically costs between forty and seventy per cent less than a full bath replacement. For the period properties common in Farnham — where cast iron and pressed steel baths are often built into tiled surrounds — the savings are even greater because replacement involves extensive tiling, plumbing, and structural work. Resurfacing preserves the original bath and avoids all of that disruption.

Yes. We carry out individual chip, scratch, and crack repairs on a daily basis. Dropped bottles, showerheads, and heavy objects are the most common causes of localised damage in Farnham bathrooms. Our colour-matching process ensures the repaired area blends invisibly with the surrounding surface, regardless of the age or shade of the original enamel.

Bath Fixer repair all bath types — cast iron, pressed steel, acrylic, stone resin, and fibreglass. We also resurface basins, shower trays, ceramic tiles, and bathroom suite components. Each material requires a different preparation and coating technique, and our technicians are trained across the full range of surfaces found in Farnham properties.

A standard resurfacing visit takes between four and six hours. The bath is ready for light use within twenty-four hours and fully cured within forty-eight hours. For individual chip repairs, the turnaround is shorter — most are usable within twelve to sixteen hours of completion.

In our experience, most of the DIY kit repairs we encounter across Farnham have already failed by the time we are called. Consumer-grade materials lack the adhesion and durability of professional coatings — they tend to yellow, peel, or produce a rough patch that looks worse than the original damage. A professional repair costs more upfront but delivers a result that lasts years rather than weeks.

Bath Fixer covers the whole of Farnham and the wider Surrey area. Our regular service areas include Farnham, Wrecclesham, Rowledge, Boundstone, Badshot Lea, Aldershot, Godalming, Haslemere, Guildford, and Cranleigh. We also attend properties across the Hampshire border and into West Sussex on request.

Bath Repair Farnham — Local Property Context

Understanding Farnham's property landscape and why bath repair is a smart choice for local homeowners

Farnham is one of Surrey's most desirable market towns, combining a well-preserved historic centre with excellent schools, independent shops, and fast rail connections to London Waterloo. The property market reflects this appeal — average house prices in the GU9 postcode area sit significantly above the national average, and period properties with original features command a particular premium.

For homeowners in this bracket, maintaining the condition of original bathroom fixtures is both a practical and a financial decision. Replacing a cast iron bath in a Georgian townhouse is not simply a matter of swapping one unit for another — it often involves specialist removal, structural assessment, plumbing reconfiguration, and retiling. The cost can easily exceed several thousand pounds, and in conservation areas or listed buildings, the loss of an original feature can diminish the property's character and appeal.

Professional bath resurfacing by Bath Fixer Farnham offers a direct alternative: a factory-quality finish applied to the existing bath, preserving the period character while eliminating the visual and functional problems caused by worn enamel. For landlords and property investors, it is equally compelling — a fast, cost-effective repair that keeps rental properties presentable and tenancy schedules uninterrupted.
