How we handle bath re-enamelling in Catterline

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Catterline as everywhere else we work.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Catterline. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Catterline, photos 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.

What we’re called out for in Catterline

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Catterline use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Catterline: your questions answered

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What areas do you cover?

All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Catterline?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
