Repairing versus replacing in Dairsie

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Bath re-enamelling in Dairsie without replacing anything

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Dairsie: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we’re called out for in Dairsie

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Dairsie

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Fife and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Dairsie, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
