Bath re-enamelling at your home in East Craigs
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlord and trade work in East Craigs
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Edinburgh and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to East Craigs. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
FAQs for East Craigs

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 generally the cheaper route.
