How we handle bath re-enamelling in Balgowan
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- 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.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repair or replace in Balgowan?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price

DIY kit or professional repair?
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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Questions from Balgowan
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Perth and Kinross. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
