Trusted bath re-enamelling in Findochty

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Findochty as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Bath re-enamelling in Findochty without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Honest limits

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Findochty

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. 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.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Findochty?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

  • Whether they match the colour on site
