Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Fordoun, Aberdeenshire
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Fordoun, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Repairing versus replacing in Fordoun
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Fordoun
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
