Landlord and trade work in Dalgety Bay
If you manage property in Dalgety Bay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dalgety Bay
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and a coloured bath you want in white.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dalgety Bay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Dalgety Bay get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Common problems we fix in Dalgety Bay
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on

- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Dalgety Bay: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
All of Fife, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
