What affects the price in Balnabruich
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KW6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Balnabruich
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Balnabruich?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Stains that won’t shift
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

- When it can be used again

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
