About our bath re-enamelling in Gilmerton
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlord and trade work in Gilmerton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What affects the price in Gilmerton
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Gilmerton. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Gilmerton questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Gilmerton and the rest of Perth and Kinross. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Perth and Kinross.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
