Bath re-enamelling for Bàgh a'Chaisteil homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bàgh a'Chaisteil?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
