FAQs for Drem
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of East Lothian, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
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.
Bath re-enamelling in Drem, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start 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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work

- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise 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 pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
