When to call us in Daviot
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Daviot
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeenshire.

Questions from Daviot
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Daviot?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice
More services for Daviot
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
