Bath re-enamelling for Bo'ness homes

Bath re-enamelling in Bo'ness without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and stains that won’t shift, we can generally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Common problems we fix in Bo'ness

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Stains that won’t shift

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Bo'ness: your questions answered

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Bo'ness

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

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 give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Bo'ness

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • 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 you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
