Bath re-enamelling in Ardbeg, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about lots of chips and rust spots and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ardbeg and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
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 photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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’ll get a fixed figure back.
What else we do in Ardbeg
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ardbeg?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that will not shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
