Bath re-enamelling in Davidston, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Davidston

- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that is failing

Common questions in Davidston
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs 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 photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Davidston and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Work done at your home or business
