About our bath re-enamelling in Dirleton
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
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 can work around your bookings.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
Questions from Dirleton
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you come to Dirleton?
We do. We send a technician to Dirleton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
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.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What affects the price in Dirleton
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Dirleton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
