Bath Re-enamelling in Aberlady
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Aberlady, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Aberlady
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlord and trade work in Aberlady
For anyone letting property in or around Aberlady, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aberlady as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Aberlady. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Aberlady
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

When to call us in Aberlady
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
