Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bun Othan use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bun Othan
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute.

What else we do in Bun Othan
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bun Othan. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Bun Othan
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
For a price in Bun Othan, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
