Bath re-enamelling at your home in Huntingtower

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

When to call us in Huntingtower

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included

Huntingtower questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you cover the whole of Perth and Kinross?

Across the UK, and that includes Huntingtower. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work in Huntingtower?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Huntingtower. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

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 pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Landlord and trade work in Huntingtower

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have chips seen to early

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
