Book bath re-enamelling in Duffus

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Bath re-enamelling in Duffus without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places, we can generally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

For a price in Duffus, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths

What we are called out for in Duffus

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

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 is the part we put right.

Repairing versus replacing in Duffus

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
