Bath re-enamelling at your home in An Tairbeart
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are often asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in An Tairbeart
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in An Tairbeart?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An old resurfacing that is failing
