What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Carloway
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carloway use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Carloway: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Do you cover Carloway?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Carloway. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Carloway.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What affects the price in Carloway
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
