Questions from Blackness
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Bath re-enamelling in Blackness, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Blackness?
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that won’t shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Blackness, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your bath is made of matters
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
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
