About Bath Fixer Earley

Bath Fixer Earley provide dedicated bath repair, resurfacing, and enamel restoration services throughout Earley and the surrounding Berkshire area. Our specialist technicians handle every type of bath surface damage — from isolated chips on acrylic baths to complete enamel renewal on ageing pressed steel tubs — offering a practical, cost-effective alternative to the expense and disruption of a full bath replacement.

Each repair starts with a detailed inspection of the damage and the bath material itself. A hairline crack in a modern acrylic bath demands a different approach to a corroded patch on a forty-year-old steel tub, and Bath Fixer Earley have the training and materials to address both. We work on acrylic, pressed steel, cast iron, stone resin, and fibreglass surfaces — tailoring the technique to the specific fixture in front of us.

The distinguishing feature of our service is a two-stage bonding system. Most refinishing companies apply a single primer beneath the new enamel layer. Bath Fixer Earley apply two separate bonding agents, each cured independently with a hot air gun, building an exceptionally strong adhesion that resists flaking, peeling, and discolouration over the long term. This dual bonding process is the reason our finishes outlast those of single-primer competitors.

Beyond bathtubs, we also restore sinks, basins, shower trays, ceramic tile surfaces, uPVC window frames and doors, granite worktops, and a range of other hard surface fixtures. If the surface in your home is cracked, chipped, stained, or worn — there is every chance Bath Fixer Earley can restore it without the need for replacement.

Nearby Areas We Serve: The bathroom repair challenges we encounter in Earley are mirrored across the wider Reading area. Homeowners in Woodley and Wokingham face similar issues with ageing bath surfaces, hard water staining, and impact damage on both enamel and acrylic fixtures.

Why Earley Property Owners Choose Bath Fixer

Earley's residential landscape is shaped by several distinct waves of development. The original village core near St Peter's Church features a handful of Victorian and Edwardian cottages, while the surrounding streets filled out with 1930s semi-detached houses that remain the backbone of the neighbourhood. Post-war expansion brought further estates through the 1950s and 1960s, and the Lower Earley development of the 1970s and 1980s added thousands of modern family homes to the southern fringe. Each generation of building brought different bathroom specifications and materials.

The pressed steel baths installed in Earley's inter-war and post-war properties are now decades old, and many show the predictable signs of age — surface chips where the enamel has turned brittle, rust patches where moisture has found its way through worn areas, and a general dullness from years of cleaning with abrasive products. The acrylic baths fitted during the Lower Earley construction phase and in more recent bathroom renovations are lighter and warmer to the touch, but they are vulnerable to impact cracks, scratching, and stress fractures along the rim and base.

Bath Fixer Earley understand these differences because we work with them every day. We assess the material, the age, and the specific damage before selecting the appropriate repair method — never applying a generic process to a surface that needs specialist attention. That understanding is the difference between a repair that lasts and one that deteriorates within months.

Real examples of restoration work completed by Bath Fixer across the Earley and Berkshire area

Pressed Steel Bath Restoration — Silverdale Road

Earley, RG6
The Challenge

A homeowner in a 1950s semi-detached property on Silverdale Road had been living with a deteriorating pressed steel bath for several years. The enamel had worn thin across the base and sides, leaving exposed patches where limescale and iron deposits had built up. Two deep chips near the overflow — caused by a falling tile during an earlier DIY project — had allowed water underneath the enamel, accelerating the rust. A local bathroom fitter quoted over £2,400 for removal, tiling repairs, and a replacement unit.

Our Solution

Bath Fixer Earley treated all corroded areas with a specialist rust stabiliser, then filled the chip damage and built up the surface to the original profile. The entire bath was keyed, thoroughly degreased, and prepared for our dual bonding agent application. Two coats of colour-matched enamel were sprayed and cured using our infrared system, followed by a complete polish and perimeter reseal.

The Result

The bath was restored to a smooth, bright white finish with no visible sign of the previous corrosion or chip damage. The homeowner saved over £1,900 compared to the replacement quote and avoided a multi-day bathroom refit. The repair was completed in a single afternoon with a written guarantee.

Avocado Bath Colour Change — Lower Earley

Lower Earley, RG6
The Challenge

A couple who had recently purchased a 1980s family home in Lower Earley wanted to modernise the main bathroom without the cost and disruption of a full refit. The existing avocado green acrylic bath was structurally sound but visually dated, and the matching basin and pedestal completed an era-specific look they were keen to move on from. Replacement of the bath alone — including plumbing, tiling, and waste disposal — was quoted at over £1,800.

Our Solution

We resurfaced the bath, basin, and pedestal in a modern brilliant white. The acrylic surfaces were cleaned, keyed, and treated with our dual bonding agents. The new enamel coat was sprayed and cured on site using infrared heat, then polished to a smooth factory finish. No plumbing was disconnected and no tiles were disturbed during the entire process.

The Result

The bathroom was transformed from a dated 1980s avocado suite to a clean, contemporary white finish — all within a single day. The couple saved over £1,300 compared to the replacement estimate and were able to use the bathroom the following evening. A written guarantee covered all three refinished items.

Helen M.
Earley — 10/02/2025

"Contacted Bath Fixer after finding a deep crack in our pressed steel bath. The technician arrived on time, explained the entire process clearly, and completed the repair in one visit. The finish is seamless and the bath looks better than it has in years. Excellent service from start to finish."

Priya S.
Woodley — 05/08/2024

"Had our avocado bath resurfaced in white rather than replacing it. The transformation is remarkable and it saved us a fortune compared to ripping out the whole bathroom. The technician was professional, tidy, and left no mess at all. The bath looks absolutely brand new."

Frequently Asked Questions — Bath Repair Earley

Common questions answered by Bath Fixer Earley

Resurfacing your existing bath typically costs between forty and seventy per cent less than a full replacement. It also avoids the upheaval of disconnecting plumbing, removing tiles, and disposing of the old unit. For the many pressed steel and cast iron baths still in service across Earley, the original fixture is often superior in quality to a budget replacement — resurfacing preserves that quality while restoring the surface to a like-new condition.

Yes. Colour changes are one of the most popular requests we receive in Earley, particularly from homeowners updating bathrooms that still have avocado, peach, or burgundy suites from the 1970s and 1980s. Our professional spray system can refinish any bath to the colour of your choice, with white and soft grey being the most requested finishes.

Absolutely. We carry out individual chip and crack repairs every day across the Earley and Reading area. Dropped bottles, showerheads, and heavy objects are the most common causes of isolated damage. Our technicians colour-match the repair compound to your existing surface so the repaired area blends invisibly with the surrounding finish.

A standard full resurfacing takes between four and six hours from start to finish. This covers protection of the surrounding area, surface preparation, chip and crack repair, application of two bonding agents, enamel spraying, infrared curing, and a final polish. The bath is ready for light use after twenty-four hours and fully cured within forty-eight hours.

Yes. Once fully cured — which takes forty-eight hours — the refinished surface is completely inert and safe for daily use, including for young children. The professional enamel coatings we use are specifically formulated for bathroom application and meet all relevant safety standards. The surface is non-porous and resistant to common household cleaning products when used as directed.

Book in Earley
Woodley

Woodley's housing stock is predominantly post-war, with a strong concentration of 1950s and 1960s family homes. Many original pressed steel baths remain in service, and hard water staining from the local supply is a frequent concern. Bath resurfacing offers an affordable refresh without the upheaval of replacement.
