- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare

Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Greenhill
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can normally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Greenhill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Questions from Greenhill
Do you work in Greenhill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Greenhill and the rest of Edinburgh. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What else we do in Greenhill
When to call us in Greenhill
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Greenhill?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No extra charge for your area
- One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
