Bath re-enamelling in Buckie

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top 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.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Buckie

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can normally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

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 stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
