Bath Re-enamelling in Aird Tong

- Resurfacing from £350

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Bath re-enamelling in Aird Tong, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are often asked to fix several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Aird Tong
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in Aird Tong
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Aird Tong?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
