Bath Re-enamelling for Badachro homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing for homes and businesses in Badachro and across Highland. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
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 any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Badachro
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Badachro
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
