Bath re-enamelling in Dunecht

Common questions in Dunecht

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you cover the whole of Aberdeenshire?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Bath re-enamelling in Dunecht, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dunecht?

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Several chips and rust patches

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunecht use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
