About bath re-enamelling in South Ayrshire
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re often asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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 several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Pricing in South Ayrshire
Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We leave the room as we found it
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landmarks near Ayr
Around Ayr, we work in homes near Railway Tavern, Wellington School and St Andrews Church, among other places. There’s a railway station in Ayr itself: Ayr station. Well-known places in the area include Tam Oshanter Museum (0.5 miles north-west) and Seafield Children's Hospital (0.9 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Carcluie Loch.
How the damage happens
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the day after.
