Do you need bath re-enamelling in Boat of Garten?

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Boat of Garten

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you come to Boat of Garten?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Boat of Garten and the rest of Highland. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a full day. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair dripping taps early

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
