Burray Village: your questions answered
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Burray Village and the rest of the Orkney Islands. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Burray Village
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can normally put it right.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Orkney Islands.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burray Village
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Burray Village?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Repair or replace in Burray Village?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
