Bath re-enamelling in Curriehill without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Curriehill
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Are there extra charges for Curriehill?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Repairing versus replacing in Curriehill
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What we’re called out for in Curriehill
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Curriehill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
