Bath re-enamelling in Balnagask without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What we’re called out for in Balnagask
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Landlord and trade work in Balnagask
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Balnagask
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you cover the whole of Aberdeen?
Across the UK, so Balnagask is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
