The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Brunstane
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Edinburgh.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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 usually the cheaper route.
