Common questions in High Ruchill
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Bath re-enamelling in High Ruchill, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in High Ruchill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in High Ruchill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Other services in High Ruchill
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for High Ruchill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
