For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Broughty Ferry
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Are there extra charges for Broughty Ferry?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dundee.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Broughty Ferry
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Broughty Ferry. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Common problems we fix in Broughty Ferry
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.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

- Worn patches where water runs and sits
