Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Elie
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Elie: your questions answered
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Fife?
We cover the entire UK, including Elie and the rest of Fife. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Landlord and trade work in Elie
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elie use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Fife and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Elie. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
