Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Brechin, Angus
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Brechin and the surrounding area, usually in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in Brechin without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Brechin
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Brechin. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
