Common questions in Bunessan
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bunessan
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bunessan. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Bunessan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
