Bath re-enamelling in Coillore

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Coillore

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Coillore?

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

10 questions to ask before booking

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coillore

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you cover the entire of Highland?

Everywhere in the UK, Coillore included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Do you come to Coillore?

We do. We send a technician to Coillore for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What affects the price in Coillore

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coillore. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
