Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Most clients in Balbeggie get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Balbeggie

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Balbeggie as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
