About our bath re-enamelling in Dury
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ZE2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Dury questions
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Dury included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath split right through the body
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Dury
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Landlord and trade work in Dury
For anyone letting property in or around Dury, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Shetland Islands and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Repair dripping taps early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Dury
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
Before booking anyone

- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
