How we handle bath re-enamelling in Aultbea
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Aultbea and across Highland.

About Aultbea
Aultbea is in Highland. From the centre of Aultbea to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Aultbea is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland where we work.
All of IV22 is covered. Neighbouring places we cover include Àird (1 mile west), Laide (2 miles north-east), Inverasdale (4 miles south-west), Poolewe (5 miles south) and Gairloch (9 miles south-west). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Landmarks near Aultbea
Our customers here include homes close to Aultbea Church. Further afield, we also cover the area around Arctic Convoy Museum (less than half a mile north-west). For a walk, there’s Loch a' Bhaid-luachraich.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Aultbea
Can pets and children be at home?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
