The process

- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Dalry
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlord and trade work in Dalry
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dalry use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What affects the price in Dalry
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Dalry. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dalry, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Questions from Dalry
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Are there extra charges for Dalry?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dalry?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
