How we handle bath re-enamelling in Arinagour
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and staining under the taps and around the waste, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Arinagour
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Arinagour
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One-year guarantee on every repair

When to call us in Arinagour
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Can I fix it myself?
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 is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
